Edil Baisalov, the leader of the Coalition for Democracy and Civil Society, a local non-governmental organization, assailed the president for what he characterized as a move toward "the legitimization of gangsterism." He said that civil society advocates were striving to organize a popular demonstration on April 8 in an attempt to exert pressure on the government to implement a stabilization program. The country has been plagued by crime and corruption since the 2005 Tulip revolution.
