During the pre-investigation check conducted by the Department of the Department of the General Prosecutor's Office of the Republic of Uzbekistan for the Karshi district, it was established that the former chairman of the mahalla gathering of citizens "Yangi Honobod" K.R., together with his son I.N., used the personal data of citizens for mercenary purposes.

As it turned out, six residents who contacted the mahalla on various issues became victims of illegal actions. Using their passport data and forged signatures, the attackers arranged the purchase of various household appliances on credit through an online store. After that, the purchased goods were sold for cash, and they appropriated the loan funds in the amount of 187.4 million soums and used them for their own needs.

A criminal case has been opened on this fact on the grounds of crimes provided for in article 168 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan (fraud) and article 228 of the Criminal Code (manufacture, forgery, sale of documents, stamps, seals, letterheads or their use).

Investigative measures are currently being carried out to establish all the circumstances of the incident.
