More than 6,000 human rights brochures were produced for distribution across the CSI’s
AORs. They contain information for residents on their legal rights and protections under the
law. By increasing public awareness on their rights, it was expected that the likelihood of
violations escaping recognition would be reduced.

place, CSI installed surveillance cameras in five police stations and the police detention
centre in Jalal-Abad province, and in three police stations in Osh city. With consultative
support from CSI, Leylek police station also installed security cameras in the pre-detention
centre. The installation of cameras has been accompanied with necessary training of police
officers on the purpose and proper usage of the cameras and the recordings.
Representatives of the Kyrgyz Republic’s Ombudsman office, together with CSI personnel
took part in MPR trips to remote rural areas as well as to areas with mixed ethnicity
composition. During these visits, the Ombudsman office’s representatives were able to
collect information connected with possible misbehavior of local law enforcement bodies.
