The situation began on February 3, when a resident of Bishkek filed a complaint with the Internal Affairs Department of the Alamudun District against an acquaintance. According to him, in 2024, the acquaintance rented a minivan worth $20,000 and 1.5 million soms from him, promising to provide bricks as payment. However, he claims that the promise was not fulfilled, and he became a victim of fraud.
The total amount of damage, according to calculations, amounted to 2 million 388 thousand 148 soms.
A criminal case was initiated on this fact under Article 209 ("Fraud") of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
As a result of operational activities, police officers detained two suspects: J.E., born in 1993, and A.K., born in 1992. Both were placed in a temporary detention facility.
During the investigation, it was revealed that they may be involved in at least five similar crimes in the Alamudun District. Law enforcement agencies do not rule out the possibility of other victims. In this regard, they urge anyone who has fallen victim to the actions of the detainees or has any information to contact the following phone numbers: 0 (554) 000-922, 0 (777) 794-909.
