Supreme Court Upholds Decision: Shayloobek Atazov Stripped of Parliamentary Mandate

in Politics / Kyrgyzstan - by


The Supreme Court has upheld the decision to deprive Shayloobek Atazov of his parliamentary mandate. This information was confirmed by the court's press service.

It is noted that the decision of the Central Election Commission to cancel the registration of the candidate for the Jogorku Kenesh in the Sverdlovsk single-mandate district, Abdurakhman Murtazaliev, and points 2 and 3 of the resolution of the Central Commission on Elections and Referendums "On the results of the repeat elections of the Jogorku Kenesh deputy of the Kyrgyz Republic in the Sverdlovsk single-mandate district No. 29", where Shayloobek Atazov was declared the winner, have been annulled.

The decision of the Administrative Court dated March 1 and the ruling of the judicial panel on administrative cases of the Bishkek City Court dated April 5, recognizing Abdurakhman Murtazaliev as the elected deputy of the Jogorku Kenesh for the Sverdlovsk district, remain in force.

It is worth noting that in February 2022, Abdurakhman Murtazaliev won the elections in the Sverdlovsk district. However, the Supreme Court supported the decision of the capital's Administrative Court and the resolution of the Central Election Commission to cancel the registration of Abdurakhman Murtazaliev. Shayloobek Atazov became the deputy from the Sverdlovsk district.

Abdurakhman Murtazaliev was removed from the race due to the testimonies of two women with whom, as the candidate claimed, he had no relationship and they were not his campaign workers.

On March 1, 2024, the Administrative Court recognized Abdurakhman Murtazaliev, the candidate for the Sverdlovsk electoral district in February 2022, as the elected deputy of the Jogorku Kenesh.
