Deputy Attorney General Umutkan Konkubaeva proposed the introduction of rules under which parents who evade alimony payments based on a court decision, with arrears exceeding three months, may face arrest for up to three days. This applies to alimony for the support of children, as well as for incapacitated adults in need of financial assistance.
In the case of repeated offenses, the arrest may last up to seven days.Furthermore, if able-bodied adult children fail to pay alimony for the support of their incapacitated and needy parents for three months, this may also lead to arrest for three days.
The General Prosecutor's Office also proposed to allow private bailiffs to demand the enforcement of enforcement documents.Deputy Elvira Surabaldiyeva shared a case where a citizen who was diligently paying alimony was unable to leave the country. "The bailiffs had all his contact information, but they did not even notify him of the problems that arose. When he tried to leave, he was not allowed to. In the process of clarifying the circumstances, it became known that the bailiff colluded with the citizen's ex-wife to complicate his departure. What measures will be taken against the bailiffs?" she asked.
As a result of the discussions, the committee unanimously approved the bill in the first reading.
