The state committee recommends parents to periodically conduct preventive conversations with their children in order to avoid criminal liability. For knowingly false reporting of an act of terrorism (Article 259 of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic), punishment is provided in the form of correctional labor from one to three years, a fine from 500 to 1,000 calculated rates, or imprisonment for up to five years.
This week school No. 33 was evacuated three times due to bomb hoaxes.
