No date of arrest was reported, however, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL), citing the Kyrgyz Prosecutor-General?s Office, reported the news September 19.
Kornienko was arrested in connection with a corruption and financial mismanagement case that is pending against former Bishkek Mayor Nariman Tuleev, who was arrested earlier this year.
