This story could get intesting. Looks a lot like Angelino got thrown under the bus
for some reason.

$1:

The Italian government has retroactively revoked the expulsion order for Ms Shalabayeva and her daughter

Brilliant, how very Wop of them.

So the husband has been picked up, get the pressure of having his wife and kid
under house arrest worked.

$1:

Mr Ablyazov was jailed in 2002 in Kazakhstan for abuse of power - a year after he set up an opposition party. He was pardoned in 2003 and spent the next two years in Russia.

He then returned to his native country where he led BTA until 2009. He fled Kazakhstan in 2009 after his bank was nationalised.

In 2011, he was granted political asylum in the UK, but later left the country after being sentenced to jail for contempt of court.

Mr Ablyazov's son, Madiayar, has recently accused President Nazarbayev of waging a "personal vendetta" against his father, according to Reuters.

In July, the Italian interior minister's chief-of-staff resigned amid a political storm over the deportation of Mr Ablyazov's wife and six-year-old daughter.

Italy has since admitted that the expulsion was illegal and asked Kazakhstan to return them.

Don't trust the Italians for anything.

Amanda Knox can tell us all about Italian 'justice' where the prosecution can try you over and over on the same charges until they get a guilty verdict. And then if those charges are dismissed for lack of evidence they can come back and prosecute you again and again anyway. Who needs evidence?
