Additional information:
On the night of November 20, unknown persons smashed the front door of the building where the Elmedia editorial office is located. «The security of the building is weak, there are no video surveillance cameras, and the owners do not provide proper supervision at the entrance. The police haven’t detected anything since last time. They say that such burglars are now easy to hire over the Internet, they will do any order. Personally, I assess these acts of glass-bashing as signals to me personally, as well as an attempt to drive us out of this place to make our work more difficult», — says Gulzhan Yergaliyeva, head of the media.
