According to preliminary data, the woman fell victim to traffickers related to labor migration and was illegally held in a military camp in Myanmar after being lured by promises of high-paying jobs.
Throughout 2025, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs successfully organized the return of 12 citizens of Kyrgyzstan from Myanmar. As a result of the evacuation, the country's law enforcement agencies have begun active measures to close channels of illegal migration and combat fraudulent schemes.

If citizens have any doubts or questions, they are strongly advised to contact the diplomatic representations and consular offices of Kyrgyzstan.
