Bishkek's Pre-Trial Detention Centre No.1 (SIZO 1) is a key criminal detention facility in Kyrgyzstan. Various media outlets have reported the detention of foreign nationals, including asylum seekers, in the centre. There are no indications to suggest that foreigners are held separately. In October 2023, Kyrgyz media reported that authorities were preparing to relocate the centre from Bishkek to the village of Nizhny Nooruz (Chui Region), north-east of the capital.
