Vienna, June 1–5. The delegation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, consisting of representatives from the Prosecutor General’s Office, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is taking place in the 35th session of the UN Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice (CCPCJ). Delegates from more than 100 states are involved in this large-scale forum.
At the main plenary session, Deputy Prosecutor General Askhat Zhumagali presented institutional reforms associated with the adoption of the new Constitution in a nationwide referendum, which strengthen guarantees for protection of human and civil rights and are aimed at ensuring the principle of Law and Order.
In connection with the Head of State declaring the Year of Digitalization, the head of the delegation shared the successful experience of Kazakhstani law enforcement agencies in crime prevention using digital solutions and artificial intelligence.
At a separate event held jointly with CARICC, Kazakhstan presented a prototype of an international platform for detecting and blocking financial flows from the drug trade. Following the presentation, experts agreed on the need to work on the pilot implementation of this system across all Central Asian countries.
Kazakhstani delegates also shared the successful experience of the Targeting Center of the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Republic of Kazakhstan during a session on tracking digital footprints of drug crimes. In addition, representatives of the prosecutor’s office actively participated in side events on combating transnational fraudulent Call Centers and preventing cybercrime against children.
Within the framework of the session, bilateral negotiations were held between the Kazakhstani delegation and the senior management of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) – G. Prichard, the Chief of Cybercrime and Technology Section, and O. Stolpe, the Regional Representative for Afghanistan, Central Asia, Iran and Pakistan. The parties substantively discussed the initiative to establish a regional Center for Countering Cybercrime in Kazakhstan, involving international experts and investments.
An important step toward expanding legal cooperation was a meeting with the secretariat of the South East Asia Justice Network (SEAJust). The parties agreed to work through the issue of Kazakhstan joining this organization as a non-regional member. This will allow Kazakhstani law enforcement officials to cooperate promptly with more than 20 Asian countries on issues of extradition and the recovery of illegally transferred assets.
During the event, the Kazakhstani delegation strengthened working contacts with colleagues from other foreign countries and international organizations on issues of combating cybercrime, human trafficking, fraud, drug trafficking, and others, and also visited the International Anti-Corruption Academy (IACA) to discuss prospects for staff training.

По поручению Президента Республики Казахстан органы прокуратуры осуществляют сопровождение инвестпроектов.
Основная задача - создание комфортной и предсказуемой правовой среды, в которой бизнес может уверенно развиваться, создавая новые рабочие места и внося вклад в развитие экономики.
Ярким примером такого взаимодействия стало сопровождение проекта ТОО «Сакота Корпорейшн» в г.Усть-Каменогорске.
Компания построила крупный торгово-развлекательный центр и административный комплекс «Maxi Mall» с объемом инвестиций в 11 млрд тенге.
На разных этапах реализации проекта инвестор сталкивался с адмбарьерами. Сначала жильцы соседнего ЖК и их ОСИ отказали в подключении к коммунальным сетям через их участок, затем Комитет науки не согласовал альтернативную точку подключения.
Позже эксплуатирующая организация трубопровода не дала добро на устройство второго въезда, а в конце «Правительство для граждан» отказало в выдаче разрешения на ввод объекта из-за отсутствия нумерации помещений в эскизном проекте.
Благодаря оперативному вмешательству прокуратуры, эти проблемные вопросы разрешены в пользу инвестора.
На сегодня ТРЦ введен в эксплуатацию, уже создано порядка 100 рабочих мест (с открытием комплекса в октябре т.г. планируется трудоустройство до 500 человек).
Подобная помощь была оказана в Мангистауской области.
При реализации инвестпроекта по строительству современного ТРЦ, стоимостью 20 млрд тенге, возникли препятствия: длительное согласование подключения к коммунальным сетям, вопросы строительства отдельного заезда и ввода объекта в эксплуатацию.
Сначала Отдел архитектуры устно отказал в согласовании подъездной дороги, мотивируя это тем, что объект не внесен в ПДП города, хотя фактически он был, но не имелось корректировок по детализации объекта.
Позже местный исполнительный орган отказал в продлении срока аренды земельного участка по формальным основаниям, что лишало инвестора возможность привлечь финансирование.
Координация со стороны прокуратуры позволила получить необходимые разрешения и завершить работы в срок.
Проект успешно реализован, создано 1,5 тыс. рабочих мест.
Сейчас «Aktau Mall» стал одним из главных центров притяжения жителей и гостей региона.
В области Ұлытау в ходе реализации проекта по строительству ветровой электростанции иностранный инвестор столкнулся с рядом проблем.
В 2023 году фискальный орган необоснованно заблокировал его банковские счета и внес в суд иск об отмене государственной перерегистрации.
В прошлом году Департамент экологии и местный аэропорт не выдавали инвестору необходимые разрешения из-за отсутствия в проекте полигона утилизации лопастей, хотя законодательство такого требования не содержит.
Позже комиссия не согласовала строительство из-за возможных радиолокационных помех для аэропорта, а уполномоченный орган отказал в регистрации прав на аренду земельных участков, мотивируя это отсутствием оригиналов документов, которые инвестор фактически предоставил.
Принятыми прокуратурой мерами права инвестора защищены, иск отозван, специалист ЦОНа и руководитель УГД города Сатпаев привлечены к дисциплинарной ответственности.
На сегодня проект запущен, функционируют 16 ветряных станций, объем инвестиций составил 75 млрд тенге.
Это лишь часть проектов, которым прокуроры оказали помощь.
Только в текущем году успешно разрешено 440 проблемных кейсов и оказана реальная помощь 1032 инвесторам.
В целом, прокуроры нацелены на улучшение инвестиционной привлекательности страны, обеспечение защиты прав и законных интересов инвесторов и предпринимателей.
Работа продолжается и находится на особом контроле Генерального Прокурора Б.Асылова.

Today, the city of Turkestan hosted the opening of the First International Forum of Public Prosecutors, attended by representatives of the prosecution services of Kazakhstan, Hungary, and five Turkic countries — Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Türkiye, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.
The Prosecutor General of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Berik Assylov, officially opened the forum, emphasizing the importance of this event for the development of the national justice system and strengthening international cooperation. He noted that the forum provides a unique opportunity to exchange experience and build closer ties between public prosecutors from different countries in order to improve the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies.
Welcome addresses were also delivered to the participants by Assistant to the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, E.N. Zhiyenbayev, and Chairman of the Supreme Court, A.A. Mergaliev, who highlighted the relevance and significance of the event.
During the forum, experienced public prosecutors from Kazakhstan will share their practices and initiatives aimed at ensuring the principle of zero tolerance for offenses, the inevitability of punishment, law and order, and the fight against crime — the core pillars of the “Law and Order” ideology. This is an important step in strengthening the legal system and developing effective mechanisms and models for public prosecution.
“The development of the institution of public prosecution is impossible without taking into account global trends and processes. International experience, best practices, and modern models of work enable us to significantly improve national approaches and enhance their effectiveness,” stressed the Prosecutor General.
Over the course of two days, forum participants will exchange ideas and practical solutions in the field of human rights protection. The program also includes discussions on digitalization and the use of new technologies in the legal sphere, training sessions, as well as interactive polls and quizzes.
