Three citizens were detained in Bishkek on suspicion of committing a series of robberies using physical force, as reported by the press service of the First May District Department of Internal Affairs.
As a result of operational activities, the police detained S.E. (born in 2006), S.B. (born in 2008), and Ch.A. (born in 2010). During the investigative process, law enforcement seized four mobile phones that had been stolen and recognized them as physical evidence.
According to available information, the detainees used a car with fake license plates. They tracked lonely passersby and, under the pretext of needing to make a call, used force, after which they openly seized their mobile phones.
A criminal case has been initiated regarding these events under Article 206 (Robbery) of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
The initial basis for the investigation was a statement from M.S., who reported that on January 12, around 02:00 on M. Gorky Street, unknown individuals, using force, openly stole his iPhone 13 Pro Max worth 60,000 soms and fled the scene.
Currently, the police are checking the detainees for involvement in other similar crimes. Citizens who have been victims of these individuals or have information are asked to contact the numbers 0 998 81 04 06 and 102.
The court has decided to remand the detainees in custody for a period of 2 months.
