BISHKEK A court in Bishkek has ruled to place Raimbek Matraimov, the controversial former deputy chief of the Customs Service who was rearrested on corruption charges this week, in pretrial detention.
The Birinchi Mai district court on February 20 said Matraimov will remain in pretrial detention for at least two months.
Matraimov s lawyer, Madina Niyazova, said she would appeal the ruling.
Kyrgyzstan s State Committee for National Security (UKMK) said Matraimov was rearrested on February 18 due to an ongoing probe launched into money laundering.
The move came days after hundreds rallied in the Kyrgyz capital, protesting a Bishkek court ruling last week that ordered a mitigated sentence and no jail time for Matraimov.
