President Sadyr Japarov responded to an appeal from residents of the Aitmatov and Manas districts by ordering a review of the possible pardon of the convicted couple. The decision was made after an appeal from Gulnara Kadyrkulova, a resident of the village of Kirovka.

Case details and next steps

According to information provided by Gulnara Kadyrkulova, in 2024 her daughter and son-in-law were convicted in a criminal case involving document forgery. The daughter was sentenced to 6 years and 8 months in prison, and the son-in-law to 6 years.

  • One of the heads of the two clinics involved in the case was placed on probation.
  • The second clinic head was acquitted.
  • The daughter and son-in-law, meanwhile, continue to serve their sentences.

President Sadyr Japarov suggested writing a petition for a pardon for both convicted persons and sending it to the relevant commission. Once the commission submits its decision, the matter will be reviewed at the presidential level.
