Father Kissing His Underage Daughter Sparks Outrage on Social Media in Kazakhstan

A video showing a man apparently kissing his daughter on the lips during her birthday celebration in the East Kazakhstan Region has circulated on social media. Users strongly criticized his behavior and called for an investigation.

The father explained that he was emotional about his daughter turning 12 and kissed her while remembering her childhood. He insisted that he had kissed her cheeks and nose, not her lips, and that the video was filmed from a misleading angle. Both parents stated that they did not feel obliged to justify themselves in response to the criticism.

The family consulted a lawyer and announced plans to take legal action against individuals who distributed their photos and videos without permission. They also reported filing complaints against two people who allegedly posted insulting and false comments.

Police are currently investigating the incident.
