The early presidential election in Kazakhstan was held in accordance with the requirements of the country’s constitution and law, the Prosecutor General’s Office of Kazakhstan said Apr. 27.

“The voting on the election day was held in a calm atmosphere without serious violations,” said the message from the Prosecutor General’s Office.

During the period before the election day, minor facts of violation of terms of holding pre-election agitation, as well as publication of the results of public opinion polls were recorded and proactive measures were taken on these facts, according to the message.

The Prosecutor General’s Office added that no administration and/or criminal cases were initiated on the facts of violation of the election law in Kazakhstan.

For comparison, during the previous presidential election in Kazakhstan in April 2011, the prosecution bodies reviewed 87 appeals, and 16 administrative offense cases were launched on detected violations, the message said.

The message said during the election period, the strict compliance by all parties of the electoral process within the law’s requirements and citizens’ constitutional rights was the main priority for the prosecution bodies.

No violations by the election commissions or state bodies were revealed during the election monitoring, the statement said.

Kazakhstan’s prosecution bodies received four appeals during the election period. Three of them contained no information or complaints for violation of the legislation.

Two appeals contained a request to clarify the regulations of the laws. The third appeal contained the disagreement with one or another requirements imposed by the legislation to the presidential candidates, the statement said.
