Islam Karimov had been the only president of Uzbekistan since the establishment of the office, and won three consecutive elections which many consider to have been rigged. The third election was the most controversial since he had been elected twice, and the current Constitution stipulated a maximum of two terms. The explanation given by him was that his first term in office, of five years, was under the previous Constitution and did not count towards the new limit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_Uzbekistan
