АКИМАТ ШЫМКЕНТА ВЫИГРАЛ СУД: СТРАТЕГИЧЕСКИЕ ВОДНЫЕ ОБЪЕКТЫ ВЕРНУТЫ В ГОССОБСТВЕННОСТЬ.Это не просто судебный спор — это была принципиальная борьба… Сегодня суд поставил точку в одном из самых сложных дел последних лет: договоры, заключённые в 1997–1998 годах по приватизации объектов водоснабжения Шымкента, признаны недействительными. Шесть стратегических объектов подлежат возврату в государственную собственность. За этим решением стоит не только юридический процесс, но и годичная, последовательная и упорная борьба. Процесс пытались системно затянуть. По инициативе ТОО «Водные ресурсы и маркетинг» разбирательство уводилось в сторону с помощью «экспертиз», не имеющих отношения к сути спора. Апелляционная стадия затянулась почти на год. В такие моменты всегда возникает главный вопрос: способен ли закон выдержать давление? — Выдержал. Судьи приняли решение не в пользу бизнеса или частных интересов, а в пользу закона и государства. Это — принципиальная позиция. Нами были доказаны нарушения законодательства на каждом этапе приватизации. В этом деле, где цена решения была особенно высокой, выражаем особое уважение судье Д. М. Конысбаевой за проявленные профессионализм и независимость. Но это ещё не конец. Теперь начинается самый важный этап — фактический процесс возврата объектов. И здесь также возможны попытки обойти закон или затянуть процесс. Не допустить этого — наша задача. Потому что речь идёт не просто об имуществе. Это вопрос контроля над стратегическим ресурсом целого города. Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/shymkent-energetika-kommunal/press/news/details/1192921?lang=kk
