Fraudulent employees detained by law enforcement agencies
As a result of telephone fraud in Bishkek, suspects have been detained. This was reported by the press service of the First May District Department of Internal Affairs.
On January 29, a woman named L.T. contacted law enforcement, reporting what had happened. According to her, on January 27, she received calls from several strangers using different phone numbers. They introduced themselves as employees of the GKNB, Ministry of Internal Affairs, and National Bank, and informed her that funds had been transferred in her name to terrorist groups. Using threats and psychological pressure, the fraudsters tried to convince her of the necessity to "prevent criminal liability."
Under the pressure of the scammers, the woman sold her apartment and transferred money to the bank accounts they specified. As a result, the damage amounted to 10,600,000 soms.
During the investigation, it was revealed that the detainees had no connection to government institutions and acted fraudulently. The victim suffered significant financial losses.
A criminal case has been initiated regarding the incident under Article 209 of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic. As a result of operational measures, three suspects were detained: A.K. (born in 2000) and two minors, S.N. and B.A. (both born in 2004). They have been placed in a temporary detention facility.
