The authorities want to grant amnesty to law enforcement officers who shot civilians, including children, pensioners, mothers, as well as beaten and tortured in custody.

Despite the fact that the authorities claim that persons involved in torture do not fall under

the amnesty, in practice, the authorities have not brought a single employee to justice, and they can also reclassify criminal cases of torture into cases that fall under the amnesty.

Thus, not a single law enforcement officer will be held responsible for the murder of

238 people in the January events.

Presenting the topic of amnesty as an alleged act of humanism, the authorities intend to amnesty those who shot and tortured civilians, and peaceful protesters, human rights activists and activists - innocent, illegally convicted,

illegally persecuted - continue to be subjected to political repression, as "extremists", "terrorists" and "organizers of the riots" in the opinion of the authorities are civil activists, #HumanRights Violation activists and peaceful protesters.

Amnesty for the innocent does not
equal acquittal and rehabilitation, as they were convicted (prosecuted)illegally. Amnesty for the innocent will not restore justice.
The amnesty of murderers breeds and reinforces impunity and creates the conditions for further repression,

including executions and torture, against civil society.

For 10 months, the authorities have not conducted an objective and transparent investigation into the killings and torture.

We call on the #UnitedStates, the #EuropeanUnion, the #UnitedKingdom and #Canada to put pressure on the Kazakh authorities to conduct an independent international investigation and bring all those responsible for the killings and torture to justice.
