Police in Almaty have identified a woman who posted a video of herself committing a traffic offence and claimed she was above the law. Checks showed that the driver had previously been deprived of her right to drive by a court decision.
VIDEO DREW POLICE ATTENTION
According to Polisia.kz, the woman posted a video on social media in which she was driving without a seatbelt fastened. She openly stated that she would face no consequences for breaking the rules.
Police officers identified her and stopped the car. It emerged that the woman had continued to get behind the wheel despite an active court ruling depriving her of her driving licence.
WHAT OFFENCES THE POLICE IDENTIFIED
Administrative proceedings have been opened against the driver on several counts:
- Driving a car after being deprived of a driving licence.
- Failure to comply with seatbelt rules.
- Non-compliance with a court decision.
- Dissemination of false information.
The statement does not specify exactly which information the police classified as false.
CAR SENT TO IMPOUND LOT
The administrative case files have been sent to court, and the car has been placed on a specialised impound lot.
The owner of the vehicle, who handed control to a woman deprived of her driving licence, has also been held liable.
Police stressed that connections, acquaintances and public statements do not exempt citizens from complying with the law.
"Flagrant insolence and confidence in one's own impunity do not exempt anyone from liability. Law and order are the same for everyone," police stressed.
