As reported by TUT.AZ, the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Bishkek confirmed to RIA Novosti the information about the easing of the preventive measure for the detained employee of the Russian House.

To change the situation, the Russian ambassador personally met with the head of the Kyrgyz National Security Committee. "Investigators deemed it possible to change the preventive measure that was previously chosen for the employee of the Russian House," the agency's source said.

According to the diplomatic mission, the Kyrgyz special services have no complaints about the activities of the Russian House as a cultural center. The detention of the employee is related to other circumstances not related to the official work of the institution.

Recall that the arrest of the Russian House employee became known on April 23. The woman is suspected of a serious crime - recruiting fighters to participate in armed conflicts outside of Kyrgyzstan.

According to additional information, the detained employee of the Russian House in Kyrgyzstan is named Natalia Sekerina. She worked at the representative office in the city of Osh. Initially, her arrest period was set until June 17, 2025, but thanks to diplomatic efforts, the preventive measure was eased.
