Nepotism – Tajik Style

This report says it all.

You may not be able to read it unless you have a subscription to The Times, but if you can’t just type “Zarrina Rakhmonova” into Google. There are several reports of her becoming a TV newsreader, in Tajikistan, where her father is president.  Apparently, her brother, Rustam,  is a professional footballer and a Member of Parliament.  It would be interesting to see if he ever gets a red card. Incidentally, the national football team has a FIFA ranking of 135.
