During a joint session of parliamentary committees, General Prosecutor Kurmankul Zulushev addressed statements made by Deputy Shayloobek Atazov accusing him of initiating hundreds of illegal cases and having ties to Rayimbek Matraimov.

Zulushev refuted the claims, stating that he operates transparently and does not protect his close ones if they face criminal charges. He invited scrutiny of his and the prosecution's activities, emphasizing his willingness to openly address any doubts.

Deputy Atazov had previously alleged that Zulushev was a close friend of Matraimov and criticized the General Prosecutor's Office for allegedly unlawfully targeting businessmen and tarnishing the reputation of the president and the head of the GKNB, Kamchybek Tashiev.
