Kazakhstan said yesterday it will review all asset sales in strategic sectors after accusing a key metals industry official of stealing some of the country's most lucrative uranium deposits. The announcement by Samruk-Kazyna, the state welfare fund controlling big state companies, follows the arrest of Mukhtar Dzhakishev, former head of state uranium company Kazatomprom who was accused this week by the KNB security service of illegally gaining control over 60 per cent of Kazakh uranium riches. The KNB has quoted Mr. Dzhakishev as denying the charge. Shares in Canada's Uranium One Inc., UUU-T an investor in Kazakhstan, have fallen sharply since news of Mr. Dzhakishev's arrest. It said it was co-operating with the investigation. UUU (TSX) fell 29 cents to $1.82.
