The administrators of the Telegram channel QirSabyn have been detained.

According to the agency, a group of individuals was involved in extorting money by threatening to disseminate false and compromising information. The operation for the arrests was coordinated by the General Prosecutor's Office with the interagency investigative-operational group of the National Security Committee and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, along with a specialized unit of the Financial Monitoring Agency.

During the searches, a significant amount of money, technical equipment, and other physical evidence were seized from the suspects. The administrators of the Telegram channel have been detained under court sanction.

Recall that earlier, the Minister of Culture and Information, Aida Balaeva, recommended her colleagues to go to court if anonymous Telegram channels spread false information about them.
