On December 17, a resident of the village of Dostuk, A.K., born in 1997, approached law enforcement in the Ala-Too district. He reported that in June of this year, a citizen named E. deceitfully gained his trust, assuring him that he owned a 20-acre land plot in the Chui region, and offered to sell it, promising to arrange all necessary documents.
Under the pretext of selling the plot, E. managed to swindle A.K. out of 8 thousand dollars, and then another 4 thousand a week later. However, the promises were not fulfilled: the land plot was not registered, the money was not returned, and the suspect threatened A.K., referring to high-ranking individuals, and avoided meetings. As a result of his actions, the victim suffered damages amounting to 1 million 440 thousand soms.
Based on the above, a criminal case has been initiated under Article 209 (Fraud) of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
During operational search activities, police officers identified the suspect — K.E., born in 1985, who had previously been convicted of similar crimes. In accordance with Article 96 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, he was detained and placed in a temporary detention facility.
