Former Kyrgyz parliamentarian Duyshön Torokulov has been detained and placed in pre-trial detention. The Pervomaysky District Court confirmed the detention order was issued on June 19th. Torokulov is suspected of involvement with an organized criminal group (OPG), though specific details regarding the allegations have not been publicly released. His detention follows an investigation into alleged criminal activity. The court’s decision indicates authorities believe his release could pose a risk. Further legal proceedings are expected as the investigation continues. This development marks a significant event in Kyrgyz politics, given Torokulov’s previous position as a member of the Jogorku Keneş, the country’s parliament.
