Global Integrity, another of the international organization assisting to fight corruption in Kazakhstan

This view seems to corroborate with the findings of Global Integrity, another of the international organization assisting to fight corruption in Kazakhstan. Global Integrity reports that the Kazakhstani Ombudsman Office, which is headed by and given the mandate to protect the encroachment of basic human rights and misuse of public funds by Kazakhstanis government officials,⁷⁹ is relatively powerless as there is direct interference from the Kazakhstani executive. Such powerlessness seems to mock the Kazakhstani legislative empowerment⁸⁰ of this office. These sentiments on the powerlessness of the office of the ombudsman are also echoed by Freedom House, an NGO concerned with rating for governments on democracy.
