Article 25. Suspension of the activities of a religious organization

The activities of a religious organization may be suspended by a court in case of violation by it of the requirements of the Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan, this Law and other legislative acts.

In case of violation by a religious organization of the requirements of legislative acts, as well as the commission of actions that contradict its statutory goals, the prosecution authorities or the registering body submit to the governing bodies of this religious organization a proposal to eliminate these violations and set a time limit for their elimination. If these violations are not eliminated within the established period, the activity of the religious organization is suspended for a period of up to six months by a court decision on the basis of a proposal from the prosecutorʼs office or the registration authority.

The procedure for suspending the activities of a religious organization in the event of a state of emergency is determined by law.
