It is claimed Alnur Mussayev and Vadim Koshlyak followed the orders of Rakhat Aliyev, a previous Kazakh ambassador to Austria and former son-in-law of Kazakhstan’s president.
Aliyev was found dead in a prison cell in Vienna earlier this year.
The bodies of the bankers, who were working for Nurbank, in which Aliyev was a major shareholder, were discovered in barrels in Kazakhstan in 2011.
More than 60 witnesses are expected to testify at the trial.
