Blogger Kaisar Kamza, who was on the international wanted list, has been officially brought from Vietnam to Astana as part of an extradition procedure. At the capital's airport, the suspect was met by officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kazakhstan and the convoy service, reports infohub.kz.

At Astana airport, Kamza was received by security forces in MIA uniforms, after which he was escorted out of the terminal building under guard. The suspect was then placed in a pre-trial detention center.

The Prosecutor General's Office of Kazakhstan clarified that the extradition was carried out by the agency's employees and the Financial Monitoring Agency with the assistance of the Embassy of Kazakhstan in Vietnam.

Recall that the extradition process began in Vietnam, where the millionaire blogger was detained in the city of Cam Ranh via Interpol channels back in April 2026. Earlier, footage from a Vietnamese airport surfaced online, showing Kamza in handcuffs accompanied by Kazakh law enforcement officers.

The Financial Monitoring Agency (AFM) put Kaisar Kamza on the international wanted list in January 2026. According to the investigation, the blogger, who gained over 2 million followers on Instagram thanks to trash content, earned money from illegal advertising. He actively promoted an online casino banned in Kazakhstan through a closed Telegram channel with an audience of over 400,000 people.

"For promoting an online casino, almost 200 thousand US dollars were transferred to his cryptocurrency wallet. In total, members of the criminal group, from 2021 to 2025, organized the activities of several illegal online casinos in Kazakhstan and illegally received over 106 billion tenge through payment terminals," the Prosecutor General's Office reported.

According to the investigation, 9 accomplices of the blogger are under arrest, while others, including the aforementioned defendant, have been put on the wanted list.

For complicity in organizing illegal gambling business, the suspect faces up to seven years in prison with confiscation of property.
