In Bishkek, the activities of an organized crime group involved in the sale of drugs produced in Afghanistan have been halted. This was reported by the press service of the Drug Control Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kyrgyzstan.
According to information from law enforcement agencies, on January 17, as a result of operational actions during a search of the vehicle of citizen A.A.K., born in 1988, narcotic substances were found — hashish (chars) of Afghan origin.
Subsequently, two individuals were detained: T.J.J., born in 1992, known by the nickname Takalak, who is a member of the criminal group of Kamchy Kolbaev, and T.I.S., born in 1989. During a personal search of T.I.S., opium was discovered in the pocket of his jacket.
Criminal proceedings have been initiated in this case under Article 282 "Illegal production of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, and their analogs for the purpose of sale" of the Criminal Code of Kyrgyzstan. For the seized drugs, forensic chemical examinations have been appointed.
It is worth noting that T.I.S. is the organizer of this drug group and has previous convictions under articles: 97 (Murder), 123 (Kidnapping), 233 (Mass riots), and 339 (Concealment of a crime). He was convicted under the 1997 edition of the Criminal Code and was supposed to serve his sentence in correctional facility No. 26 of the State Penitentiary Service under the government of Kyrgyzstan, but with the help of a fictitious contract with an individual entrepreneur, he obtained a certificate of employment, which allowed him to evade punishment and continue his criminal activities. Investigative authorities will conduct additional investigations regarding this fact.
Currently, measures are ongoing to identify other participants in this drug group.
