Head of Scientology's Narconon on Trial, Pavlodar, Kazakhstan, Oct.-Nov. 2009

In Nov. 2008, The Kazakhstan financial police searched the premises of the Scientology front organization Narconon in Pavlodar, Kazakhstan. They seized more than one thousand client files and about 200 packages of medicinal compounds that are prohibited in Kazakhstan. The center charged nearly $2,000 a month for its "treatment" of drug or alcohol addiction but reported its income as voluntary donations.

The center operated without a license and its head, Evgeniya Tarkhanova, was accused of illegal business activity. Tarkhanova's trial began in late October 2009. On November 25, she was found guilty and fined. The defendant's attorney was her mother, Tatiana Tarkhanova.

Pavlodar City, Kazakhstan, is the capital of Pavlodar Province, located on the northern border of Karaganda Province.
