Interdistrict Court accepted an administrative lawsuit filed by citizens on invalidating the decision of the Bishkek City Council on transfer of the property complex - Gazprom school to a fund with the same name. Representative of Nashe Pravo (Our Right) Foundation Svetlana Antropova told 24.kg news agency.

According to her, consideration of the lawsuit is scheduled for December 19.

"We hope that justice will be finally served and the transfer of the school to Gazprom fund, at which the monthly payment is 22,000 soms, will be found illegal by the court,” Svetlana Antropova said.

Recall, a capsule at the construction site was laid on August 29, 2017 by the then president Almazbek Atambayev and Gazprom CEO Alexey Miller. The Gazprom Kyrgyzstan school is designed for 960 students. Since its servicing was estimated at 170 million soms per year, the educational institution was transferred to the fund with the same name for three years for lease. A quota of 25 percent for free education was set for children with disabilities, winners of olympiads and excellent students.

The Gazprom school was transferred to the fund at a session of the City Council on July 31, 2019.
