On November 30, as a result of operational investigative measures by the Anti-Corruption Agency with the National Security Committee, he was detained and placed in a pre-trial detention facility, The Anti-Corruption Service commented.
The investigation into the case of Daurenbek Kozhabaev is ongoing, and the details are not being disclosed.
In November 2023, his older brother Maksat Kozhabayev, former deputy chair of the Anti-Corruption Agency and prosecutor of Shymkent, was convicted of fraud and sentenced to five and a half years in prison.
