Ex-deputy Asylbek Damirbek uulu, convicted of smuggling by an Almaty court, was transported to Kyrgyzstan under guard. The Prosecutor General’s Office confirmed the information to 24.kg news agency.

It is specified that three people convicted in Kazakhstan, including the former parliament member, will serve their further sentences in the Kyrgyz Republic in accordance with international agreements.

Asylbek Damirbek uulu was found guilty of «creation and heading a transnational organized group» and «economic smuggling» in Almaty. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison.
