In Bishkek, at 10 Kuyukov Street, in the village of Kok-Zhar, part of the construction site fence collapsed onto a residential building, as reported by the victims to the editorial office of Kaktus.media.

According to their statements, there were people in the house at the time of the incident, including children.

It is currently known that concrete blocks and metal structures fell onto the residential building, causing damage to the roof and destruction of the fence.

Despite the absence of injuries, the author of the appeal expressed concerns about serious consequences, considering that there were people in the house.

He also noted possible risks to gas communications, which could lead to gas leaks and other serious problems.

Construction of apartment buildings is underway nearby. Local residents claim that the work is being carried out by the company Central Asia Invest, which is involved in the residential complex "Eco Park." There are also reports of another residential complex being built in the area.

The authors of the appeal point out that according to the master plan, this area is designated for buildings no higher than three stories, yet houses up to 12-14 stories are actually being constructed, posing an immediate threat to neighboring private homes.

The victims expressed concern about the oversight of construction and compliance with safety standards by the authorities.

Response from the Ministry of Construction

On February 21, around 06:00, due to strong winds in the village of Kok-Zhar, at 10 Kuyukov Street, a temporary fence of a multi-story residential building under construction collapsed. This led to damage to the fences of neighboring residential buildings.

Specialists from the Department of State Architectural and Construction Control of the Ministry of Construction immediately went to the scene and took measures.

As a result of the inspection, a fine of 200,000 soms was imposed on the company OsOO Central Asia Invest, which is carrying out the construction. Work is also being conducted at the construction site to ensure technical safety and eliminate identified violations.

The company is required to restore the fences of the damaged houses within three days.

The Ministry of Construction emphasizes that constant monitoring of compliance with construction standards is being carried out and measures are taken in case of violations.
