Here's the revised and restructured article:

In a heartfelt post on her Instagram, former Mazhilis deputy Dinaра Shuкижанova shared an update on the health of deputy akim of Shymkent Ruslan Berdenov. Berdenov, who faced an attempted murder attempt on April 21, is still in intensive care, according to Shukijanova.

During a visit to Berdenov, also accompanied by current Mazhilis deputies Aiderbek Hodjanazarov and Olzhas Kuspakov, Shukijanova expressed her hopes for a speedy recovery. Berdenov is reportedly feeling better but is still fighting to overcome his critical condition.

"We visited our dear friend and wished him a swift recovery. Ruslan's spirit is strong and he will conquer this," Shukijanova wrote.

Shortly after the attack, Berdenov was rushed to the hospital and underwent emergency surgery. The suspect, Zhienbai Yernar Zhienbayuly, was apprehended at the scene and a criminal case for attempted murder was opened. Various versions of the crime have surfaced, including some suggesting it was motivated by a dismissal.

Minister of Health Akmaral Alnazarova previously shared the condition of deputy akim of Shymkent Ruslan Berdenov. Earlier, deputy akim of Shymkent Sarsen Kuranbek revealed new details about the attack on his colleague. He clarified why the akimat did not comment on the incident and addressed the rumors surrounding it.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the circumstances of the attack, Berdenov remains in hospital with serious injuries. Reports indicate that he was shot three times, including a penetrating chest wound that damaged his right lung, diaphragm, intercostal arteries, liver, abdominal cavity, and kidney. He also sustained hemopneumothorax (air/blood in the chest cavity) and external bleeding in his shoulder/forearm.
