The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kyrgyzstan will check the facts voiced in an investigation on transfer of funds from Kyrgyzstan. Deputy Head of the Ministry Pamir Asanov told today at a press conference.
«All facts will be verified. We have already sent instructions to all state bodies. The materials are voluminous, it will take time,» he said.
Recall, journalists of Kloop, Azattyk and OCCRP published a second part of the investigation on transfer of funds from the Kyrgyz Republic. They report about relationship between Aierken Saimaiti with two recently killed men, ethnic Uyghurs — a merchant from Madina market Khufur Abdurakheman, and a taxi driver Khusan Kerimov.
According to the investigation, an underground courier network has been operating in Kyrgyzstan for many years, through which millions of dollars in cash were taken out of the country. Khusan Karimov was one of the couriers. He was found dead in the trunk of a car near Manas airport on October 24, 2019. It is reported that he was supposed to deliver $ 1.6 million in cash from the Kyrgyz Republic to Istanbul (Turkey) on that day.
Khufur Abdurakheman was a collector — a man who collected money from merchants for its further transportation abroad.
