Taraz. September 4. Kazakhstan Today - The prosecutors are seeing an increase in cases of violence against members of the government, Kazakhstan Today reports.

"The statistics show an increase in instances of the use of violence against the authorities, especially with regard to the police, as well as increase of the attacks on the police by members of organized crime groups and terrorists," Bauyrzhan Zhanuzakuly, the head of the prosecutor's office of Zhambyl region said.

He said that in many foreign countries for resistance and violence against the authorities a very harsh punishment is provided, and this, in its turn, allows them to fully ensure public safety.

"In this context, the prosecutor's office of the region offers to strengthen criminal responsibility for these crimes by increasing the sanction of Part 1 of Article 321 of the Criminal Code of three to eight years and part 2 of article 321 of the Criminal Code of five to ten years in prison," B.
