Biography edit

Azatbek Asanbekovich Omurbekov was born on September 17, 1983 in the village of Zhanak, in what is now Kyrgyzstan. Azatbek has stated that, in the future, he intends to return to the system of the Ministry of Defense of Kyrgyzstan.

In November 2021, he received a blessing from the Russian Orthodox Church.

Omurbekov became well-known to the public after Ukrainian citizen journalism website InformNapalm doxxed the officer, exposing much of his personal information to the public. According to InformNapalm, Omurbekov is a 40-year old lieutenant colonel who was leading the Russian troops during the Battle of Bucha.[2] This would make him responsible for the Bucha Massacre, during which Ukrainian civilians in Bucha were massacred and raped by Russian troops, with several mass graves being discovered in the city after Russian forces retreated. The Ukrainian government has claimed that as many as 458 civilians were killed[3] but an investigation by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights estimated that there were only around 178 victims.[4] The Independent said it was unable to confirm or verify the claims of Omurbekov's involvement.[5]

Due to his involvement in the Bucha Massacre, Omurbekov has been placed under sanctions by the United Kingdom[6] and the European Union.[7]
