In the capital, a suspect has been detained for defrauding a Bishkek resident of 523,000 soms.
A case of fraud occurred in Bishkek, in which a local resident was affected. According to information from the press service of the Internal Affairs Directorate of the Oktobrskiy District, on January 14, 2026, a woman named M.N. reported to the police. She stated that unknown individuals contacted her through the Instagram account bella_gadane.kg, promising to help her "open the way" to something important. As a result, she transferred 523,366 soms to them via a mobile application, after which the fraudsters blocked her and stopped responding to her messages.
During operational activities, law enforcement officers were able to identify the suspect — a citizen named B.E., born in 1993. She was detained and placed in a temporary detention facility. The investigative service initiated a criminal case under Article 209 of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
Upon her arrest, various physical evidence was found with B.E., including mobile phones, bank cards, advertising materials, business cards with the number +996 500 38-06-75, as well as books, including the Quran and "Kabyl bolgon dualar," a deck of Tarot cards, and banknotes that resembled $100 bills. All seized items were included in the case materials.
Law enforcement agencies urge citizens who have fallen victim to fraudulent activities to report any information they have by calling: 0(700) 21-00-24, 0(551) 90-00-59, or 102.
