On October 2^nd 1998, the Mongolian Minister of Infrastructure and one of the heroes of the country's peaceful transition to democracy, S.Zorig, was brutally murdered. Even after 18 years of ongoing investigations, the case has still not been solved. Various people have been detained, most notably Zorig's wife B.Bulgan; she was released from prison on 9^th September after having been held incommunicado since November 2015. The basis for her detention was allegedly connected with her presentation of false evidence in the initial hearings. Two possible suspects have been in detention since 2015. According to an official source, Mongolian prosecutors have transferred the case of S.Zorig's murder to the Primary Court of Ulaanbaatar's Sukhbaatar District.
