The video that appeared on social media shows stacks of banknotes scattered on the ground, with uniformed people nearby. The video is linked to the arrest of the heads of two large state-owned companies — the "Samruk-Kazyna" investment fund and "Kazakhstan Railways".

Journalist Mikhail Kazachkov reported about a suitcase thrown out of a window of a residential complex on Kunaev Street in Astana. According to him, this is related to the detention of high-ranking officials suspected of receiving bribes.
Soon, the National Security Committee of Kazakhstan confirmed: on November 11, Nurlan Zhakupov, chairman of the board of the "Samruk-Kazyna" fund, and Yelzhas Atynshiyev, head of "Kazakhstan Railways," as well as other suspects, were detained. The agency reported an investigation into a corruption crime but did not disclose details.
"Samruk-Kazyna" manages Kazakhstan's largest state assets in energy, industry, and transport. Zhakupov had headed the fund since April 2023. Atynshiyev had led the railway for just over three months – he was appointed in July.
It has not yet been officially reported to whom the suitcase of dollars belonged or whether it is related to this case.
