Kyrgyz Security Chief’s Brother-In-Law Detained on Large-Scale Fraud Charges

The brother-in-law of the head of Kyrgyzstan’s State Committee for National Security (SCNS), Kamchybek Tashiyev, has been detained on suspicion of large-scale fraud.
The investigation found that the relative, having conspired with a Turkish citizen by deceit and breach of trust, took possession of a large sum of money from a local businessman, who then appealed to the SCNS with a corresponding statement.
The Committee said that despite close family relations, Tashiyev was instructed to conduct an objective investigation and give a legal assessment.
Based on the decision of the Pervomaisky District Court of Bishkek, the suspects were detained and taken into custody as part of the investigation. The investigation is underway, and measures are being taken to compensate the injured party.
