The suspect attempted to force the witness to retract previously given testimony in a criminal case
A man has been detained in Bishkek who, according to the police, threatened a witness with a gun and demanded that he change his testimony in a criminal case.
According to the Leninsky District Internal Affairs Department, in December 2025, citizen A.I. reported that unknown individuals had beaten him and threatened him with a weapon. The investigation later established that the conflict was related to a case involving the illegal trafficking of potent pharmaceutical drugs.
Previously, A.I. had been detained by the Anti-Narcotics Service and voluntarily handed over tablets, after which he reported that he had purchased them from a woman born in 1995. She was detained and placed in a temporary detention facility.
After this, according to the investigation, the husband of the detained woman — citizen N.A. — began to threaten A.I. with a gun and demanded that he change his testimony.
Criminal cases have been initiated on charges of "Hooliganism" and "Threat or violence in connection with pre-trial proceedings." The suspect has been detained and placed in a temporary detention facility. The investigation is ongoing.
