Ambassador of Kyrgyzstan to Germany Omurbek Tekebaev made it clear on his social network page that he intends to sue ex-speaker of the Jogorku Kenesh Akhmatbek Keldibekov if the latter, according to him, does not refute the lies once morest him.
“Tibetan monarchs say:” A fool argues with everyone, a smart one only with equals, and a wise man only with himself.
Now I am an aksakal and I should be wiser. But still there are moments relating to honor and dignity, when all the same it is necessary to make clarifications.
On April 6, 2023, Akhmatbek Keldibekov stated in court that the application for a diplomatic passport to Kadyrzhan Batyrov was signed by Deputy Prime Minister Omurbek Tekebayev and Chief of Staff Edil Baisalov.
This information is absolutely untrue and offends my honor and dignity. If Keldibekov would have said these words somewhere in a narrow circle, then I would not pay attention to it. But he said these words in court, which means he is aware of the full responsibility for giving false testimony.
The June events have already been investigated, including by a parliamentary commission. According to these materials, it has already been established that in 2010 I not only did not meet with Kadyrzhan Batyrov, but also did not sign any documents for him.
If Keldibekov misspoke in court, he should officially refute his words and change his testimony. Otherwise, he will have to refute his lie through the court,” Tekebaev said.
