Bishkek's municipal inspection service is checking retail outlets in parks and squares whose contracts or permits have expired.

Inspectors found mobile ice-cream stalls that did not meet the requirements of the unified design code and continued operating without valid permits. The wheeled stalls were taken to an impound lot. Authorities will draw up protocols against the owners and apply measures under the law.

The raids follow residents' complaints that kiosks had returned to the capital's parks and squares after Shanghai Cooperation Organisation events. Bishkek's mayor's office denied that dismantled facilities were returning.

The municipality said contracts for placing temporary structures in parks and squares expired on August 29. Owners who want to resume operations must obtain new documents, sign new contracts and bring their outlets into compliance with the unified design code.
