In the summer of 2015, the Investigative Committee of Russia was also finding out whether the head of the Kyrgyz Government gifted Glock-19 pistols to the State Duma deputy and the other two suspected fraudsters. Kommersant reported.
According to the media outlet, the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation instructed the Investigation Committee to ascertain the legality of the origin of Glock-19 award pistols, which were found at the State Duma deputy from the Communist Party Denis Voronenkov and two persons involved in the criminal fraud case in which he was a witness. "They were awarded with pistols by the Prime Minister of Kyrgyzstan in 2011," Kommersant wrote.
As specified, according to the seized documents, the pistols, as well as 50 rounds of ammunition, were presented by order of the then Prime Minister of the Kyrgyz Republic Almazbek Atambayev "for a significant contribution to the development of the material and technical base" of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic.
However, the investigation found out that the weapons that became the award ones were purchased in Austria and were brought directly to Russia from there, and not through Kyrgyzstan. "These are the circumstances of its delivery to the Russian Federation that are of interest to the Prosecutor General's Office. According to the deputy, he personally did not participate in the development of the material and technical base of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kyrgyzstan and has nothing to do with it. The Prosecutor General's Office was also interested in the fact that the security officer Murzikov said that deputy Voronenkov paid for the award weapon and not the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Glock-19 NRGK004, according to the testimony, cost him $ 150,000. And the testimony of an entrepreneur Vitaly Kachur says that in May 2011, Denis Voronenkov offered him and Mr. Murzikov to get award weapons through his friend in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kyrgyzstan, providing the ministry with an assistance of $ 150,000. He paid the money not to the Kyrgyz, but to the deputy from the Communist Party," the ministry says.

Denis Voronenkov is a deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation of the VI convocation. He emigrated to Ukraine in October 2016. He was killed on March 23, 2017 in the center of Kiev.
