In Bishkek, suspects in large-scale fraud using messengers have been detained

In Bishkek, law enforcement officers detained a group of suspects involved in organizing large-scale fraud. The criminals, using messengers, coerced the victim into selling her apartment, causing her damages amounting to 22,130,000 soms, as reported by the city's Department of Internal Affairs.

On December 22, 2025, a citizen G.Ch. appealed to the Sverdlovsk District Department of Internal Affairs of the capital, requesting action against unknown individuals who, using various phone numbers, contacted her via WhatsApp and posed as employees of the State National Security Committee and banks.

The suspects deceitfully and under psychological pressure forced the woman to conduct a series of financial transactions. As a result, her apartment was sold, and the proceeds were transferred to accounts specified by the fraudsters. Consequently, the victim incurred losses amounting to 22,130,000 soms.

A criminal case has been initiated regarding this incident under Article 209 (fraud) of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.

As a result of operational activities conducted by officers of the Main Department of Internal Affairs of the capital, the suspects were identified and detained: A. Zh., born in 2007, B.S., born in 1998, and N. M., born in 2002.
