Parliamentary elections were held in Kyrgyzstan on Oct 4 with the participation of 16 political parties. Preliminary results showed that four parties crossed the 7 percent threshold to enter the parliament.

Some parties which failed to meet the threshold organized nationwide protests last Monday, demanding the annulment of the elections and claiming gross violations.

Kyrgyzstan's Central Election Commission (CEC) later annulled the results of the elections after clashes between police and protesters.
