Construction company “Eurasia Building” turned to court to request the acknowledgement of misreporting on the online television channel 101tv.kz, who published a five-minute video entitled “Shareholders lied to. Thousands of people lied to in Karaganda cannot move into their flats” on their YouTube channel. The plaintiff demands a retraction, official apology, and compensation for legal fees. The lawsuit has remained open, as the claimant had not undergone appropriate pre-trial dispute settlement procedures.
