Ex-deputy Ravshan Dzheenbekov, who is being kept in Bishkek remand center 1 on charges of attempt to organize mass riots in order to seize power, said he did not agree with the conclusion of the politological examination.
A letter was posted on his Facebook page.
Ravshan Dzheenbekov noted that the investigator of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ulan Zhapekov, submitted for examination a recording of a conversation between members of the Committee for Protection of the Kempir-Abad reservoir in a coffee shop on October 22 last year. »It is strange and illegal that not the words of each member of the committee were given for examination, but of all in general. This is illegal and demonstrates the lack of professionalism of the investigator,” he said.
According to the arrested person, in such a way the investigators are cracking down on critics of the authorities.
The Committee for protection of Kempir-Abad reservoir was created on October 22. It includes activists, politicians and MPs. On the same day, in an interview with Kabar news agency, President Sadyr Japarov said: the authorities have information who was behind the rallies and marches on Kempir-Abad issue.
Mass arrests began on October 23. Authorities placed 26 people in jail on charges of preparing for riots.
A number of international human rights organizations such as the International Partnership for Human Rights (IPHR), the World Organization Against Torture (OMCT), the Norwegian Helsinki Committee (NHC), the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights (HFHR), Freedom Now and others issued a statement calling for the immediate release of politicians and activists arrested in Kyrgyzstan.
