An investigation found that officials from the Yntymak District signed fictitious work completion certificates worth 1.9 million KGS. The money was transferred to the companies OJSC “U.” and LLC “A.T.K.” for construction work that was not actually carried out.
As a result, the state suffered significant material damage, and the residents of the village still do not have full access to clean water.
A criminal case has been opened under Article 337 of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic (“Abuse of official position”). Law enforcement agencies are currently conducting an investigation to establish all the circumstances of the case and the persons involved.
