Abstract. In this paper Problem 17.13 by A.O. Asar in The Kourovka Notebook is studied which is 'Let $G$ be a totally imprimitive $p-group$ of finitary permutations on an infinite set. Suppose that the support of any cycle in the cyclic decomposition of every element of $G$ is a block for $G$. Does $G$ necessarily contain a $minimal$ $non-FC-subgroup$?' and an example of a group $G$ satisfying these conditions but not having a $minimal$ $non-FC-subgroup$ is given.
