A resident of the Akmola region received compensation of 2.5 million tenge and a freedom restriction after a man bit his nose. The incident happened during a birthday gathering in a village in Akmola district, setting off a legal process that highlighted issues of violence at private celebrations. The altercation began when a guest argued with the birthday boy’s mother and knocked him to the ground. The guest then slipped inside the house from the street to intervene, but the assailant managed to bite the guest on the nose. The victim bled during the skirmish, yet only visited the hospital several days later, delaying medical attention. The bite damaged the tip of the nose, and doctors warned that a lasting deforming scar could remain for life unless corrective measures were taken. Medical professionals advised undergoing plastic surgery, with costs estimated at 2.5 million tenge.
Following the incident, the victim filed a police report, and authorities opened a criminal case against the aggressive guest for intentionally inflicting serious bodily harm. After a trial, the 43-year-old woman received a verdict of four years in prison. In addition, the convicted individual was ordered to compensate the victim for material damages equivalent to the price of the planned plastic correction. The case underscored the serious consequences of violence leading to permanent facial injury and the financial and legal responsibilities that accompany such harm. This sequence of events demonstrates the judicial system’s approach to violent offenses and the emphasis on restorative financial remedies for victims.
This report also references a separate note from the same region, noting that a person previously known as Moscow faced an incident involving an injury while defending a girl near a restaurant. It highlights a continuing pattern in which personal safety and accountability at public or semi-public venues are scrutinized under the law. The coverage reflects the broader attention paid to assaults that result in lasting physical consequences and the steps taken to address both criminal liability and compensation for damages (KazTAG).
