BISHKEK (Reuters) - A court in Kyrgyzstan has ruled to dissolve a non-governmental organisation that ran a popular news website often critical of the government.
A court in Kyrgyzstan has ruled to dissolve a non-governmental organisation that ran a popular news website often critical of the government. The court order late on Friday to shut down Kloop.kg follows raids on several other media outlets and arrests of their reporters, which Western governments have criticised as a crackdown on independent media. Kloop.kg's troubles began last August when state prosecutors filed a lawsuit to have it shut down on the grounds that Kloop Media, its NGO publisher, was not registered as a media organisation.

Kyrgyzstan raided 24.KG's offices, taking editors for questioning. The outlet faces criminal charges over an article on Ukraine. Security services sealed off the office, detaining the general director. Kyrgyzstan has seen a crackdown on the press, dropping in press freedom rankings. Computers and evidence were seized during the raid.
