Kyrgyzstan\'s ex-prime minister Nikolai Tanayev, detained while attempting to leave Kyrgyzstan, will remain under arrest until the end of the investigation, spokesman for the Kyrgyz Prosecutor General\'s Office Almaz Daryldayev told Interfax on Wednesday. Tanayev, accused of embezzling state resources, had personal guarantees, issued by a group of Kyrgyz parliamentary deputies which, however, did not give him the right to go abroad, the spokesman said. Tanayev\'s Russian defense lawyer Maxim Maximovich told Interfax on Wednesday that Tanayev\'s arrest is \"illegal.\" \"Tanayev did not plan to go into hiding, or let down those who had vouched for him. He needed to go to Almaty for urgent personal reasons. Neither luggage, nor any large sum of money were with him. On September 7, Tanayev planned to attend a tennis tournament in Bishkek, but was forced to travel to Kazakhstan for personal reasons.\" Maximovich said. The lawyer said he will demand his client\'s release from custody. (Interfax)
