On May 26, 2014, a special visit to the
PDF-1 in Bishkek was carried out; photographs
of the effects of torture were taken. Statements
of alleged victims of torture were received and
sent to the General Prosecutor's Office of the
Kyrgyz Republic and the Prosecutor's Office in
Bishkek, for urgent action on this fact.
On June 20, 2014, the investigator of
the
Investigative
Department
of
the
Prosecutor's Office in October district of
Bishkek, Toktosunov A., refused to institute
criminal proceedings against the police officers.
On July 03, 2014, a second appeal was sent to the General Prosecutor providing facts of
implementation of investigative actions with a clear delay in scheduling and conducting
examinations.
On August 04, 2014, the investigator of the Investigative Department of the
Prosecutor’s Office in October district of Bishkek, Toktosunov A, again refused to
initiate criminal proceedings against the police officers.
Also, we would like to disclose the facts of torture of detainees and the facts of
obstruction of the work of the National Centre by an officer of the Sverdlovsk police
department in Bishkek, Bolotbekov Akyl.
On November 14, 2014, at 6:20 PM, we received a phone call with a message that D. A.,
in the Sverdlovsk police department on the second floor in office No. 23, from 3:00 PM was
being beaten by an officer, Bolotbekov Akyl.
Staff of the National Centre arrived to the Sverdlovsk police department on November 14
at 7:35 PM, went to the rooms for administrative detainees, which contained one person of
advanced age; D. A. was not there and he was not registered in the journal.
On the second floor of the Sverdlovsk police department, in office No.23, a man was
sitting on the couch. Also 3-4 men were sitting in civilian clothes. Behind the door 2 guys were
standing with hands handcuffed to each other, one of them was Danakov Adyl Bakhtiyarovich.
His left eye was bruised with light pink. A request for an opportunity to speak with detainees
was rudely denied by detective Bolotbekov A., and the staff of the National Centre was forced
out of the door. Explanations about the mandate of the National Centre and the consequences
of obstructing the activities of the National Centre were given to Bolotbekov A., but these
explanations were not effective.
After a few minutes, the two detainees were taken
out of the police department and were taken somewhere to
Chui Avenue. The detainees were dressed only in sweaters,
they did not wear jackets. The staff of the National Centre
followed them; in the court of police department they again
asked to be given the opportunity to talk with the detainees,
but again they were refused.
Staff of the National Centre returned to the entrance point of
the Sverdlovsk police department, to record the Act of
obstruction in the work of the National Centre of the Kyrgyz
