Detentions of droppers are a common occurrence for law enforcement
In Bishkek, a case of fraud occurred in which the criminals posed as employees of the State National Security Committee, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the National Bank, managing to extort a significant amount from a local resident — 11 million soms. This information was received from the Internal Affairs Department of the Sverdlovsk District.
The victim, L.K., reported to the police with a statement in which he explained that between February 16 and 19, he was contacted via the WhatsApp messenger by unknown individuals who introduced themselves as representatives of law enforcement agencies. They were able to convince him to transfer 11 million 275 thousand soms, gaining his trust.
A criminal case has been initiated regarding this incident under Article 209 of the Criminal Code of Kyrgyzstan.
During the investigative activities, law enforcement was able to identify and detain three suspects: T.K., born in 2007, A.M., born in 2006, and A.K., born in 2003. They acted as droppers, meaning individuals through whom the stolen funds were withdrawn.
