Transport prosecutors revealed violations of safety rules on railway transport

Citizens have repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with the facts of train delays for a considerable time, which are becoming systematic in some regions.
In this regard, transport prosecutors constantly draw attention to the causes of emerging situations.
So, only in the Zhambyl transport region, prosecutors have established more than 600 deviations in the main tracks, 300 sections with faults in the rails, for which KTZ branches have not taken timely measures.
Due to the improper maintenance of the tracks on the highways, long-term train speed limits were imposed, which led to more than 300 cases of passenger train delays.
According to the act of supervision of the prosecutor's office, the heads of the Zhambyl branch of the main network, the Shuska and Sary-Shagan distance of the way were brought to strict disciplinary responsibility. The operator of the main infrastructure has developed a Plan of measures to eliminate violations of the law.
In another case, individual officials of KTZ branches do not stop trying to cover up railway incidents that directly affect the safety of citizens.
03.12.2020 at the Shalkar station after the departure of the passenger train with the message "Mangyshlak-Almaty", the driver applied forced emergency braking due to the self-disconnection of the car from the train.

According to the rules, the authorized body should have been immediately informed about this fact, in order to take the case into account and bring the guilty persons to justice.
Instead, in order to cover up the above case, the responsible officials of the branch of "KTZ-GP" LLP - "Aktobe branch of GP" made a fictitious act on the spontaneous opening of the handle of the end crane of the tail car.
Only after the intervention of the Kandyagash transport prosecutor by the authorized body, 2 administrative materials were compiled in relation to the legal entity.
Also, 15 officials (including the First Deputy head, the heads of the car depot and the station) were brought to disciplinary responsibility, 2 employees were transferred to lower-paid positions, in relation to the deputy car depot, a decision was made in the form of termination of the employment contract.
