Deputies to expand list of crimes not subject to amnesty

A group of deputies of the Parliament of Kyrgyzstan proposed a bill to expand the list of crimes, for which amnesty cannot be applied under the law. It was announced at a meeting of the Committee on Constitutional Legislation, State Structure, Judicial, Legal Issues, and Regulations of the Parliament.

Currently, amnesty is not applied to crimes such as:

  • Financing terrorist activities;
  • Public calls for terrorist acts;
  • Financing organized groups and criminal associations;
  • Illegal arms and ammunition trafficking;
  • Sabotage.

If the proposed amendments come into force, it will be impossible to apply amnesty to defendants and those convicted of creating an organized group or participation in it; creating an illegal armed formation or participation in it.

The bill was adopted by the committee in the second reading.
