Bakiyev’s brother detained in S Kyrgyzstan to be taken to Bishkek

"Presently, Akhmat Bakiyev is being delivered to Bishkek," he said. "The law enforcement forces also detained a group of his partners, neither of them made any resistance."

As Akhmat Bakiyev was detained, he had a wig, a mask, false moustache, a gun and bullets for it, Baibolov said.

"An investigation will be organised according to the present legislation," he said.

Akhmat Bakiyev had been wanted by the country's authorities as he was suspected of organising the mass clashes in the Jalal-Abad Region in May of the current year. The participants in the disorders tried to seize buildings of state authorities. Several people died in the clashes.

Kyrgyzstan's law enforcement authorities suppose that over the times of Kurmanbek Bakieyv's presidency, his brother Akhmat was a 'shadow' governor of the Jalal-Abad Region. The former president was announced wanted by the international police. The country's Prosecutor General's Office claims him responsible for organising cruel murder of civilians in the central square of the capital on April 7. However, Belarus does not agree to extradite Kyrgyzstan's former president, who stays there now.
