Men were in leadership positions.
In Kazakhstan, amid large-scale gas protests in the country, two sons-in-law of ex-president Nursultan Nazarbayev were fired from senior positions in large companies.
This was reported by the website of the state fund “Samruk-Kazyna”.
It is noted that the powers of Dimash Dosanov, the head of the board of the operator of the KazTransOil main oil pipeline, have ceased. He took over as CEO in 2016. Dosanov is married to the youngest daughter of the first president, Ali Nazarbayeva.
Kairat Sharipbayev, 58, was also dismissed from the post of Chairman of the Board of QazaqGaz National Company JSC.
Recall that since the beginning of January, violent protests continued in Kazakhstan, which escalated into armed clashes. One of their slogans was “Grandfather, go away”, which is addressed to Aliya's father Nursultan Nazarbayev. The ex-president has not appeared in public since then. However, he seems to support the actions of his successor, President Tokayev, who, in order to restore order in the country, invited the CSTO troops to Kazakhstan – from Russia, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan and Armenia. Since January 13, they have already begun to withdraw from the country.
