Brother of Kazakh President is suing St. Regis in Bal Harbour

A Miami condo deal  which has gone bad  can cause further embarrassment for Kazakh president Nursultan Nazarbayev, the Miami New Times reported. In 2007, Nursultan’s brother Bolat Nazarbayev purchased a luxury condominium in the St. Regis Bal Harbour for $1.2 million with money earned from his appointment to the head of the state copper mining industry.  He has now filed a lawsuit five years later, claiming that the St. Regis lied to him about certain aspects of the condo. One point of contention is the balcony, which Bolat argues is “not private at all.”
