A woman named Choy Min Kyung, who fled North Korea and underwent severe trials, has filed a criminal case against the country's leader Kim Chen In at a court in Seoul. This was reported by Zamin.uz. This event has been met with great attention from human rights defenders and the international community. According to reports, Choy Min Kyung fled to China in 1997 but was forcibly returned to North Korea in 2008. Upon her return, she was arrested and faced sexual violence, torture, and humiliation in prison. This process has seriously harmed her mental state, and she is currently on permanent medication. In 2012, Choy Min Kyung managed to flee from the North again and move to South Korea. On July 11, 2025, she filed civil and criminal charges against North Korean leader Kim Chen In and four high-ranking officials in a Seoul court. The organization "Database Center for North Korean Human Rights" is assisting the woman. They plan to bring this case to the UN and the International Criminal Court as well. In her appeal, Choy Min Kyung states that she wants her actions to be an important step towards restoring human dignity and freedom. She believes it is her duty to hold Kim Chen In and his government accountable so that others do not suffer from the regime's brutality. In recent years, South Korean courts have been issuing symbolic rulings against the North Korean leadership. For example, in 2023, a Seoul court ruled to collect $36,000 from North Korean citizens, and in 2024, it ordered the payment of 100 million won to refugees forcibly returned from Japan. At the same time, Pyongyang has not responded to these claims and has not recognized the rulings. However, this situation is considered an important precedent for international human rights defenders. Choy Min Kyung's appeal is viewed not only as her personal legal struggle but also as a strong claim against human rights violations in North Korea. Her courage gives hope and strength to other victims.

The ad.nl portal provided information about this. According to the publication, Davids found out several years later that his painting collection had been stolen.

One of the buyers saw Davids' name on the back of a painting and contacted him through social networks. After that, Davids filed a lawsuit. Habibi admitted to the theft.

The general secondary education system in Uzbekistan is undergoing fundamental changes. This was reported by Upl.uz. The country has officially begun implementing a 12-year education model. This was announced by the press service of the Ministry of Preschool and School Education. In the near future, a normative legal document confirming these innovations is expected to be signed. This decision was made as part of a comprehensive program to reform the education sector. The program was presented to the president on September 8 and envisions a systematic renewal of all stages from preschool to higher education. The transition to 12-year education is being carried out to align with international experience. The results of the PISA study conducted in 2022 showed that in 85% of countries considered leaders in education, the number of school years is exactly 12. The introduction of the new model will allow adapting curricula to international standards and also enable students to be well-prepared for subsequent stages of education and vocational training. The updated system structure will be as follows: the first year is designated as a preparatory stage for 6-year-old children, which is considered part of primary education. Primary education will last a total of 5 years, including 1 year of preparation and 4 years of primary school. The next stage is basic general secondary education, covering grades 5 to 9 and lasting 5 years. The final 2 years constitute complete general secondary education, which will be conducted in schools, academic lyceums, specialized military schools, or technical colleges. To ensure a smooth transition process and create the necessary infrastructure, about 3,600 new schools will be built and more than a thousand state kindergartens will be opened. It is precisely in these institutions that the updated preparatory program for the youngest students will be piloted. An interesting point is that information about the transition to 12-year education had been actively discussed on social networks since 2023. However, at that time, the Ministry of Preschool and School Education officially denied these claims, emphasizing that the 11-year education system was in effect. The current decision shows that approaches at the state level have been reconsidered and there is political will to implement large-scale reforms. In the history of independent Uzbekistan, a 12-year education system has existed before. From 2010 to 2017, education was organized based on a 9+3 scheme, where students who completed grade 9 were required to continue their studies at vocational colleges and academic lyceums.
