Nurlanbek Turgunbek uulu stated that he has no connection to the document and had never seen it.

«At that time, I was on an official business trip in Turkey. When this letter appeared, I was not even in the country. Everything happened without my knowledge. I have never seen this letter,» he said.

At the same time, the former speaker urged to wait for the court’s decision.

«The process has already started, you will hear everything. For now, we should calmly wait for the outcome,» he added.

Kurmankul Zulushev also declined to comment in detail on the charges, citing the confidential nature of the proceedings.

«There is nothing to say about the charges at this stage. The process is ongoing,» the former prosecutor general stated.

The case is being heard in a closed court session, as the materials are classified. Former State Committee for National Security chief Kamchybek Tashiev is also among the defendants.
