Later, the head of the foundation invited the deputy to a meeting at the regional branch of the AMANAT party to discuss their differences. Sarsembayev, unwilling to respond to the activist's questions, attempted to leave. Kukenova tried to stop him and accidentally tore off his badge in the process. The deputy perceived this as a physical attack and subsequently reported it to the police.
A case has been initiated under part 1 of Article 109 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan ("Infliction of bodily harm"). It is currently being examined by the court.
