In April, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Tajikistan announced amendments to the legislation providing for a punishment in the form of forced labor for up to six months for those who engage in fraud and deceit by posing as healers, fortune tellers, sorcerers and talisman makers.
It was also reported that a special register of citizens using the services of fortune tellers and sorcerers was created. In August, the ministry reported that more than 150 people had already been added to the register.
