The verdict of the Pervomaisky District Court against the former deputy of the Parliament Sadyr Japarov was appealed in Bishkek City Court. This was announced the day before by the lawyer of the former MP Sharabidin Toktosunov.
According to him, the appeal to the higher authority was filed by the victim in the case Emilbek Kaptagaev.
«At the moment, the date for considering the case in the second instance is still unknown. We filed a complaint today,» Toktosunov said on Friday.
