Baku/09.01.22/Turan: As of January 9, more than 5 thousand "bandits" and "terrorists" were arrested in Kazakhstan, says the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kazakhstan.
Inspired by such a significant success, the country's authorities presented to the public one of the instigators - a citizen of Kyrgyzstan. In a local TV report, the beaten man said he was paid $ 200 to come and participate in the rally.
However, very soon it became known that the "terrorist" was actually a jazz musician Vikram Ruzakhunov, who had come to perform in Kazakhstan on New Year's holidays.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kyrgyzstan sent a note of protest, demanding the release of its citizen.
At the same time, the Kazakh authorities reported that during the riots since January 4, 164 people were killed in the country.
Independent and opposition media broadcast video footage of troops opening fire on peaceful protesters. According to the comments, it was after this that the crowd went to smash state institutions and attack the police.
There are no organized gangs and terrorists. Most of those who are passed off by the authorities as bandits are hired workers from neighboring countries - Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. The majority of accusations against the Kyrgyz, which sparked outrage in Kyrgyzstan, says independent sources in Kazakhstan.-0-
