Ex-Minister's Child Support Plea Rejected by Kazakh Court

Former Kazakh Minister Kuanysh Bшимбаев Loses Court Bid to Reduce Child Support Kazakhstan – In a recent court case, former Minister Kuanysh Bшимбаев's attempt to reduce his monthly child support payments of 1.6 million tenge was unsuccessful. Bшимбаев, currently imprisoned, argued that his incarceration left him without income to cover his children's education, medical expenses, and leisure activities. However, the court uncovered evidence that Bшимбаев had transferred his assets in 2024, indicating an attempt to manipulate his financial situation. The judge stated, "The court found that the defendant deliberately attempted to reduce his assets to avoid his financial obligations." The court ultimately ruled in favor of the children's interests, rejecting Bшимбаев's request. This decision highlights the court's commitment to protecting the well-being of children even in complex cases involving public figures.
