Abstract:

According to archival data, in the 30s of the 20th century, several tens of thousands of people were repressed and shot in Kyrgyzstan.

According to official data, 12.5 million citizens of the USSR became victims of Stalinist repressions.

During the years of great terror in 1937-1938, over one and a half million people were arrested in the USSR and almost half of them were shot. Rehabilitation of victims of political repression began in 1954.

On August 30, 1991, a state funeral ceremony was held for the reburial of the remains of the victims of Stalinist repressions found on Chon-Tash. And the next day, on August 31, 1991, the independence of sovereign Kyrgyzstan was proclaimed.

In the Memorial Complex to the Victims of Repressions "Ata-Beyit" c. Chon-Tash, Chui region (30 km from the capital - the city of Bishkek), the bodies of 137 Kyrgyzstanis of 19 nationalities, who were called "enemies of the people" by the Soviet authorities and shot without trial or investigation, were buried.
