The layout and the second flight copy of the Buran orbiter should belong to Kazakhstan, the Minister of Digital Development, Innovation and Aerospace Industry of the country Bagdat Musin said on Facebook, RIA Novosti reports.
"Citizen Dauren Musa claims in his post that the authorities of Kazakhstan have been suing him for three years, sparing no effort. This is true, and we will continue to do this, because our goal is to restore law and justice, return its property to the state, " the official commented on the proceedings with the owner of Buran — the general director of the Baikonur Rocket and Space Company (RSC) Dauren Musa.
According to the minister, initially the RSC " Baikonur "was called"KRISPOS Aelita". The latter was created to preserve the property of Baikonur. The Kazakh state enterprise" Infrakos "and the Russian RSC Energia took part in the" CRISP Aelita". "As a share in the authorized capital, Kazakhstan has contributed property, including Burany . Thus, the Burans do not belong to the citizen Dauren Musa, but to the RSC Baikonur, " Musin said.
The minister added that Musa later became a co-owner of KRISPOS Aelita ,which he renamed RSC Baikonur. "We believe that Mr. Musa has no right to this company, to the property and "Burana", " the minister concluded.

In the same month, the general director of the RSC "Baikonur" said that his company owns the second flight model of the Soviet "Buran". "They want to take it away, but who will give it to them?
