[NewsReadOnline] In Kazakhstan on January 7, crime boss Arman Dzhumageldiev was detained in a pseudo ” Wild Arman “.

This is reported by Sputnik Kazakhstan.

Wild Arman is suspected of involvement in the riots in the country. According to available information, Dzhumageldiev recently returned to Kazakhstan from Turkey.

According to the Russian “Interfax”, together with “Dikim Arman” security forces detained six more people in Almaty. The detainees allegedly found four semi-automatic pistols of different brands and calibers, ammunition for them, edged weapons, and an armored vehicle. So far, all this has been confiscated from them.

According to Telegram channels, Dzhumageldiev flew to Kazakhstan to support the protesters, but after a skirmish with them, during which he was beaten, he began to call for an end to the violence and protests.

As a reminder, protests over gas prices began in Kazakhstan in early January.

As reported, the President of Kazakhstan, Kasim-Zhomart Tokayev, said that he had given an order to the security forces open fire to kill without warning. He stressed that "whoever does not surrender will be destroyed."
