Military prosecutor’s office of Kyrgyzstan opened a criminal case for embezzlement of $ 200,000 belonging to a Chinese citizen. Erlan Sultanov, head of the 4th department of the Central Investigation Department of the State Committee for National Security of Kyrgyzstan (SCNS), is accused.

Kaktus.media local news agency reports, citing special services officials.

A monetary dispute arose between two Chinese citizens, and they wrote a statement to the police against each other. Towards the end of the investigation, one of the Chinese citizens decided to settle the dispute by asking the SCNS investigator to transfer $ 200,000 to his compatriot.

During the trial, it turned out that the investigator did not transfer any money to the victim. However, his receipt of the obligation to transfer money was found.

The case was initiated about two weeks ago, but it has become known today.

After compensation by the special services officer for damage in the amount of $ 100,000, he was placed under house arrest. At the same time, Erlan Sultanov has not yet been dismissed.
