The GKNB detained representatives of "sportobshchak" who were extorting money from goods carriers at the "Dordoy" trading center.
According to the committee's information, on February 9, 2026, individuals identifying themselves as members of the so-called "sportobshchak": "D.Z." and "R.u.A." were arrested.
The preliminary investigation revealed that these individuals had extorted money from truck drivers transporting goods from the "Dordoy" trading complex to neighboring countries for 15 years, using threats and physical violence. They charged money for each bag of cargo and each freight vehicle.
It is noted that "D.Z." had not previously been prosecuted due to his connections in law enforcement agencies.
His ties to criminal elements were also confirmed, including involvement with organized crime groups led by K.Asanbek and R.Akmatbaev, as stated in the announcement.
In connection with these events, the Main Investigative Department of the SCNS of the Kyrgyz Republic has initiated a criminal case under Article 261, Part 2 of the Criminal Code, and the detainees "D.Z." and "R.u.A." have been placed in a temporary detention facility of the SCNS.
Currently, operational investigative actions are ongoing to identify other individuals involved in this crime.
