In an interview with the "Kabar" agency, President Sadyr Japarov announced upcoming significant changes in the structure of the country's law enforcement agencies.

The head of state noted that he had been considering these measures earlier, but their implementation had been postponed for various reasons.

“The GKNB will focus on performing its core functions: intelligence, counterintelligence, ensuring constitutional order, as well as combating terrorism, extremism, crime, and the illegal drug trade. They will retain the right to conduct investigative actions in these areas. Intervention in the economy is not provided for. The activities of the GKNB and the composition of its staff must remain confidential. After the reform, this structure will become a true intelligence agency, similar to the KGB. The Ministry of Internal Affairs will also focus solely on its immediate tasks,” Japarov emphasized.

Additionally, he added that investigative powers will remain with the relevant agencies.
