The head of the State Committee for National Security of Kyrgyzstan, Kamchybek Tashiev, has ordered an investigation into the activities of a construction company that began construction of 9.5 km of road on Lenin Street in Naryn last year and has not yet finished, Kaktus.media reports.
At a meeting with Tashiev, the Minister of Transport and Communications Absattar Syrgabaev reported that the contractor is Beta Group.
"Check the activities of Beta Group. This is an order from the Department of Internal Affairs. Check how much money the Ministry of Transport allocated, on which streets, where it was spent, its efficiency. Urgently. Head of the Department of Internal Affairs, take personal control. The equipment – how it works. They say they were only working last night, having learned that Tashiev was coming. Find the owner, find him in Bishkek, in Naryn. If you don't find him here, give the order to your Bishkek colleagues. Let them find him, put him in a car, bring him. Tie him to some pole. Let him be here day and night. Don't even give him food, tie him to a pole," the head of the State Committee for National Security said, addressing the head of the Department of Internal Affairs.
He also demanded that measures be taken against other contractors who failed to complete the work and against the responsible officials of the Ministry of Transport who conducted the auction.
Later, Tashiev said: "Find the contractor, bring him to his senses. Don't ask anyone for protection. Take measures immediately, up to and including [taking] him into custody. The only protection should be the law. If he has a protection, tell me, we'll smash it."
