Thirty people to get bounty from FinPol

About 30 individuals in Kazakhstan will likely receive money prize for reporting about corruption to Financial Police, the country's agency for countering economic and corruption crimes, said its official Murat Zhumanbai.

"32mln tenge was allocated from the budget to encourage those supporting struggle against corruption and today nearly thirty people are candidates to receive such rewards," he said.

Currently, the bounty amounts are being worked out - candidates will be paid once courts issue verdicts on cases initiated upon their reports.

The finpol official also said, a report may be a ground for more than one criminal proceeding, but emphasized that only those will receive reward whose report was a key evidence in a criminal case.
