It is reported that he received the sum of 1 million tenge through an intermediary.
Ultimately, the court found Adlet Mustafinov guilty and imposed a fine of 30 million tenge. He was also permanently banned from holding positions in the civil service and was dismissed from the internal affairs bodies on negative grounds.
The bribe-giver and the intermediary in the bribery were sentenced to fines of 20 million and 10 million tenge respectively.

The Chairman of the Committee, Colonel of Justice T. Dzhanibekov, was issued a reprimand; his deputy, Major General of Justice M. Ayubayev, and the heads of internal security, human resources, and logistics departments received a severe reprimand.
