According to him, the former head of state will stay in the country for 2-3 days.

«Nobody summoned him for interrogation. He himself came to complete the work on Kumtor, because he did not have enough time last time. He will not go to his birthplace in Kemin, since he has already visited it. He will go to the State Committee for National Security (SCNS) tomorrow,» Bekbolot Talgarbekov noted.
