A fraudster was detained in Osh for posing as a police officer, suspected of extorting money from the owner of a massage parlor. According to information provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, this individual acted in conjunction with his accomplices, pretending to be a representative of law enforcement agencies.
The investigation suggests that three criminals entered the parlor without presenting any identification and conducted an illegal search, displaying aggression towards the owner. They seized 32,000 soms in cash and demanded additional money.
Subsequently, one of the criminals, who identified himself as "Marcel," received another 15,000 soms. Under the pretext of providing protection, he also organized regular transfers of 10,000 soms to his electronic wallet. In total, the overall damage amounted to 77,000 soms.
A criminal case has been initiated under Article 208 of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, concerning extortion.
As a result of operational-search activities, a suspect named K. уулу N., born in 1993, was detained while receiving another sum of money. It has been established that he has no relation to law enforcement agencies and may be involved in a number of similar crimes.
The detainee has been placed in the temporary detention facility of the Osh City Department of Internal Affairs.
Operational activities regarding two other suspects are ongoing. The investigation continues.
