In court No.2 of Atyrau, a criminal case was heard against the acting head of "Institution No.75" of the Department of the Criminal Executive System (DCES). He was accused of receiving a bribe.
According to the press service of the department, he was bribed by being given 1 million tenge in exchange for not transferring the bribe-giver's brother to prison and keeping him in the pre-trial detention centre to perform maintenance work.
"The case was received under an accelerated pre-trial investigation, and due to the fact that the defendant fully admits his guilt, does not dispute the relevance and admissibility of the evidence gathered in the case and does not insist on its examination in a court hearing, the trial was conducted in a shortened procedure", the statement said.
The defendant fully admitted his guilt and asked for a lenient sentence.
The court found the defendant guilty and sentenced him to a fine of 30 million tenge with lifetime disqualification from holding positions in the civil service and state organisations. In addition, the convicted person was stripped of the rank of 'Lieutenant Colonel of Justice'.
