Murder of Limonti: Supporters of accused hold rally at Government House

Supporters of Talgat Shamiev, accused of murder of a crime boss Almazbek Sulaimanov, nicknamed Limonti, hold a rally near the Government House in Bishkek.

They demand replacement of the judge in the case, who, in their opinion, is conducting the trial in a biased and unfair manner, protecting the affected side.

About 150 people are waiting for a representative of the Executive Office of the President or the Government to come out to them. Five protesters were invited into the building, but none of the protesters agreed to do it.

The protesters explained this by the fact that they came from Naryn region and should hear what a representative of the government says.

It should be noted that due to another scandal in the court between the supporters of the defendant Talgat Shamiev and the lawyers of the affected party, the sessions will be held behind closed doors.

The crime boss nicknamed Limonti was killed on March 28, 2020 in Naryn. The accused Talgat Shamiev brought his body to the Department of Internal Affairs and confessed to the crime. It is known that the murder was committed out of revenge. In 1998, Almazbek Sulaimanov brutally murdered the father of the accused — a member of the organized crime group Imangazy Shamiev.
