On March 7, the bodies of two men showing signs of violence were discovered in a field located near the village of Ak-Torpok.
According to the Main Internal Affairs Department of the Chui region, the bodies were found at the edge of a cultivated field, approximately 200 meters west of the area between the villages of Petrovka and Ak-Torpok, on the 48th kilometer of the Bishkek-Osh road.
It has been established that the deceased are D.D., born in 1999, and K.B., born in 2003. D.D. had been reported missing since March 1, 2026, according to a statement filed with the Internal Affairs Department of the Lenin District of Bishkek.
The investigative department of the Main Internal Affairs Department of the Chui region has initiated a criminal case regarding this incident under Article 122 (Murder) of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
Police quickly identified the suspects, which included K.O. (born in 2001), S.B. (born in 2007), M.B. (born in 2005), and S.U. (born in 2006).
Three of them — S.B., M.B., and S.U. — were detained in the Kadamjai district of the Batken region and taken to the Chui region, where they were placed in a temporary detention facility. The court decided to keep them in custody for two months.
The main suspect, K.O., had been wanted for some time but was apprehended on March 9, 2026, in the Osh region and was also placed in detention.
The investigation suggests that on February 25, the suspects deceived the victims — B.K. and his acquaintance D.D. — into a rented apartment in Bishkek, where they were beaten and robbed, having their money and mobile phones of models iPhone 13 and iPhone 15 stolen, which were later sold in the "TSUM" and "Berekete Grand" shopping centers.
After the robbery, the victims were held in the apartment without food. On the night of February 26, around 00:30, their hands were bound with tape, their eyes were covered, and they were taken away in a rented Hyundai Sonata along the Bishkek-Osh highway.
In the area between the villages of Petrovka and Ak-Torpok, the suspects led the victims into the field, where they were brutally beaten and strangled. The bodies were then moved deeper into the field, and the criminals fled the scene.
During their escape, the suspects discarded the victims' clothing and shoes on the roadside near the villages of Ak-Torpok and Bekitai.
On February 28, attempting to avoid arrest, they traveled to the village of Alga in the Kadamjai district of the Batken region.
During a search of the home of one of the suspects, M.B., law enforcement officers found a fake service ID of the State National Security Committee in the name of K.O., as well as uniform clothing with epaulettes in the rank of police lieutenant.
The investigation is ongoing.
