It became known that a citizen named J.Z. approached the police with a written statement. He reported that two unknown individuals, introducing themselves as Hamza and Ali, demanded 7 million soms from him under the pretext of debts allegedly left by his deceased son, threatening violence in case of refusal.
In connection with this incident, the investigative service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs initiated a criminal case under Article 208 of the Criminal Code, concerning extortion.
During operational activities conducted by the Main Department of Criminal Investigation in conjunction with investigative bodies, two young men were detained: K.N., born in 2005, and T.H., born in 2001, when they received part of the demanded amount.
Later, a third suspect was identified and detained — J.A., born in 1986, who, according to preliminary investigation data, was the organizer of the criminal scheme. A search was conducted at her home, during which a vehicle used to commit the crime was also seized and placed in a tow lot.
All detainees were taken to the investigative service and placed in the temporary detention facility of the Main Internal Affairs Directorate of Bishkek.
The investigation has established that J.A. had known the victim for several years, was aware of his financial situation and family matters. She exploited the tragic loss of the applicant's son to organize and coordinate extortion activities, involving other individuals in the crime.
Currently, necessary investigative actions are ongoing to clarify all circumstances of the case, and the possible connection of the detainees with other similar crimes is being checked.
Investigative actions are continuing.
