The investigation suggests that A.K.A., using his status and extensive personal connections, organized a scheme for extorting money for assistance in obtaining favorable decisions in civil cases.
At the initial stages of his activities, the suspect demanded $25,000 from the victim, after which he requested another $7,000, threatening to use his administrative leverage to change the court decision in favor of the opponent if the demand was refused.
The lawyer was caught in the act while receiving part of the amount of 437,500 soms (equivalent to $5,000).
The detainee is currently held in the GKNB detention center for a period of two months.
The investigation continues to clarify possible connections and other participants in this crime.
