Deputy Speaker of the Parliament of Kyrgyzstan Nurbek Sydygaliyev was convicted of an unsubstantiated statement. This is reported by Sputnik Kyrgyzstan.
As the agency reports, on April 15, at a joint session of the parliament, Sadygaliyev accused the republic's prosecutor's office of corruption in terminating the case of the ex-head of the MegaCom mobile operator Akylbek Zhamangulov. Verification of this fact showed that this was not the case, after which Sydygaliyev admitted that he did not have data confirming his words.
After that, the Vice Speaker was summoned to The State Committee for National Security (SCNS) of Kyrgyzstan, where they held an explanatory and preventive conversation with him about the inadmissibility of false statements in public.
The State Committee for National Security stressed that the statement of the Vice-speaker is unreliable and provocative, which can lead to an aggravation of the socio-political situation in the country, as well as cause distrust of citizens to the authorities.
