Citizen U.J. filed an official complaint with the Main Internal Affairs Department of Bishkek regarding the actions of A.E.

The complainant stated that A.E. behaved intentionally and selfishly, posing as an acquaintance and classmate of the son of a high-ranking government official. He also claimed to work in an "office" and could assist in resolving financial issues related to tax and other government structures.

The perpetrator, misleading U.J. about his real capabilities and abusing his trust, took his money.

From February 17 to 21, 2026, while on Gorky Street in Bishkek, A.E. under the pretext of providing assistance received 105,000 US dollars from U.J., after which he disappeared without fulfilling his obligations and without returning the money.

A criminal case has been initiated regarding this incident under Article 209 (fraud) of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.

As a result of investigative actions, officers of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Main Internal Affairs Department of Bishkek detained A.E., born in 1985, who had previously had legal issues.

Currently, investigative measures are underway to clarify all circumstances of the case.
