The reform of the judicial system, thanks to which a number of new codes appeared in Kyrgyzstan, was aimed primarily at the humanization of legislation and the decriminalization of certain types of crimes. Domestic violence, in the framework of changing the legislation, on the contrary, was criminalized - it was included in the Code of Misconduct, which is part of the criminal law. But the de facto prosecution of perpetrators has become more difficult.
