It was reported that Kyrgyz border guards were charging 100, 200, 300 Kyrgyz sums to cross the border.
At the meeting of the Kyrgyz parliament, deputy Irisbek Otajonov spoke about corruption cases on the Uzbek-Kyrgyz border.
According to him, Border Guards are charging citizens for transfer.
"There is information that citizens of Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan are charged from 100, 200, 300 Kyrgyz rubles for crossing the border. Do explanatory work with employees. Do not charge money and shame the state," said Irisbek Otajonov.
Cases of extortion by border guards on the Uzbek-Kyrgyz border were previously known, including the Kyrgyz "friendship" post which reported that permission to cross the border would start at 50,000 Uzbek soums.
