Father May Be Responsible for Son's Injuries: Kazakh Court Case Raises Questions

A Kazakh court is hearing a case involving Sherzat's injuries, with the defense lawyer suggesting the possibility of accidental injury by Sherzat's father, Karzhau Nurymov. The lawyer, Zhuman Abenov, stated in court, “There is not a single piece of forensic evidence to confirm the guilt of my client.” He highlighted the absence of any examination of a knife found at the scene, adding, “Why wasn't this knife examined? Why are they hiding this?” The lawyer requested the acquittal of the accused, Abzal Shynasyl, on charges of murder. The case has raised questions about the investigation's thoroughness. The incident underscores the importance of comprehensive forensic analysis in criminal investigations. The court's decision will be crucial in determining the truth of the matter.
