Presidential spokesman Dosali Esenaliev said Bakiev dismissed the
deputy secretary of the Security Council, Vyacheslav Khan, the day
before a session of the Security Council, which oversees the army,
police, and security agencies.
Bakiev also sacked the first deputy chief of the National Security Service, Abdijalil Jamalov. The dismissals follow demands by parliamentarians for the two to be removed from their posts.
