All of them will serve their sentences in a medium-security penal system institution.

Tursengali Alaguzov's civil claim for the recovery of the amount of moral and material damage has been partially satisfied. Authorities will recover material damage in favor of Alaguzov in the amount of 6 billion 584 million 244 thousand KZT. They will do this by returning 43.25% of the shares of Galanz Bottlers JSC.
