Снижение деятельности судов аксакалов в Кыргызстане

Согласно отчету исследования в рамках РПЗ снижается количество обращений к аксакалам в качестве судей в Кыргызстане, которые рассмотрели в прошлом году меньше 10 дел.

Причиной снижения обращений к аксакалам среди населения связано с приведением в исполнение судебных решений и ограниченными знаниями в области права членов суда аксакалов. Вдобавок, суд аксакалов не обладают властью для разрешения таких наиболее преобладающих правовых проблем в сельских районах как незарегистрированные браки и имущественные вопросы. Отчет на английском и русском языках является кульминационным моментов первичного двухмесячного исследования правового эксперта Азиты Ранджбар.

The Declining Role of Aksakal Courts in Kyrgyzstan

A report into the role of Aksakal Courts in Kyrgyzstan by legal expert Azita Ranjbar and commissioned as part of Equal Before the Law. The report found that the use of aksakal (elders) courts in Kyrgyzstan is declining, with most courts receiving less than ten cases in the past year.

The reasons attributed to the declining use of aksakal courts among the general public include problems associated with enforcing judgments and the limited legal knowledge of aksakal court members. In addition, aksakal courts do not have the authority to resolve some of the most prevalent legal issues identified in rural areas, namely those involving undocumented marriages and property.
