Three more wives of the nephew of Nursultan Nazarbayev and businessman Kairat Satybaldy have lost their property in France.
For context, a list of assets confiscated from the businessman, previously published by the Anti-Corruption Agency, mentioned a house on the Antibes peninsula in the south of France.
According to the Telegram channel “Access to the Sea”, the house actually turned out to be the luxury residential complex “Parc du Cap’s”. In it, four apartments were confiscated from Satybaldy for almost €8.5 million (4 billion tenge).
It emerged that in December 2017, companies were registered in Monaco, neighbouring France: “KS Propriete”, “SK Propriete”, “AB Propriete” and “GK Propriete”. Subsequently, four three-bedroom apartments in the residential complex “Parc du Cap’s” were registered under them.
It is reported that the first two letters in the company names are the initials of their owners – Kairat Satybaldy, Saida Kanatbekkyzy, Assel Bakhtiyarkyzy and Gulmira Kauaskyzy (Satybaldy). The women listed are Kairat Satybaldy's wives.
In addition to the apartments in France, Satybaldy’s other wives – Saida and Assel – owned property in Dubai, which most likely also ended up on the list of the businessman’s confiscated assets.
Incidentally, Kairat’s official wife, Gulmira Satybaldy, is currently serving an 8-year prison sentence for embezzlement and misappropriation of another's property.
It was also previously reported that another unofficial wife of Satybaldy, a native of Kalmykia – Marsela Nursultan – lost an apartment in the elite Moscow residential complex “Zolotye Klyuchi” with an area of 272 sq. m and a value of almost 1 billion tenge.
