According to law enforcement agencies, the family lived in the village of Zhangeldi and went missing in November of last year. After they left home in an unknown direction, contact was lost. It is believed that the family may have headed to the southern regions of the country.
Relatives reported that one of the sons periodically contacted them via WhatsApp, claiming that his mother was ill and that there was an urgent need to sell livestock. However, he only communicated through text messages and avoided video calls, which raised concerns among his relatives. The family also began selling livestock, which was unusual for them.
On January 6, the police reported the discovery of the bodies of two missing individuals—a married couple—found in a shed near their home nearly two months after their disappearance. A criminal case has been opened under the article "Murder."
The search for the two adult children continues. The head of the Emergency Situations Department of the Atyrau region, Zhantore Demeshov, noted that operations are underway in the areas of Shadymantubek, Besmola, and Birymola, as well as in the Karasu region. Divers and an underwater drone are participating in the operation.
According to a television channel, on November 5, another daughter of the missing, who lived separately, left home by taxi. Later, she was captured by surveillance cameras in the Inder district. It was also reported that another daughter and her husband left Kazakhstan and went to Uzbekistan.
Law enforcement agencies reported that the mobile phone of the family head is periodically active, but no one answers the calls. The investigation is ongoing, and no further information is being disclosed in the interest of the investigation.
