# suspected and/or official reason(s) for detention
Azat Erkin reports that he was charged with using an illegal visa to go abroad twice (adding that this doesn’t make sense as Mural has a Kazakhstan green card and doesn’t need a visa).
According to Azat Erkin and as suggested by the CNLC in their letter vouching for the victim, Mural was detained for having foreign applications (e.g., WhatsApp) on his phone.
Azat notes that Mural has never participated in extremism, separatism, or terrorism, nor has he engaged in politics or religious activities. Nor has he disclosed state secrets for either of the two countries (China and Kazakhstan).
