The discovery was made following an inventory conducted by an interagency commission established as part of a criminal investigation by the State Committee for National Security (GKNB). The findings reveal a significant amount of land that has been utilized for free by local residents without legal documentation from local self-government bodies.
Land classification and usage
According to the GKNB, the identified territories consist of various types of agricultural and residential land. The investigation highlights that the lack of formal lease agreements has persisted for more than two decades.

Returning these lands to legal circulation is expected to generate additional revenue for the local budget. Furthermore, the GKNB stated that regularizing the land status will create conditions for developing agricultural production and ensuring the efficient use of land resources.
