A regrettable case of violence was recorded in the Kashkadarya region. The 19-year-old driver was unfairly beaten while picking up a passenger during work hours, local sources reported.
According to preliminary information, the young man, born in 2006, worked as a taxi driver and on the same day drove a 9th-grade student living in the village of Chukurtma to his destination. However, some citizens who misunderstood this situation, in particular, the girl's relatives, stopped the driver on the road and physically assaulted him.
Witnesses say the incident happened quickly - the driver didn't have time to explain, and the guys started hitting him without any investigation. As a result, the victim sustained injuries to the head and neck, developed a hematoma on the forehead, and was taken to the hospital with multiple abrasions.
Doctors assessed the young driver's condition as satisfactory. The results of the medical examination showed that he needs several days of treatment.
According to sources close to the investigation, law enforcement agencies are conducting an investigation into the incident. The causes of the incident, its exact details, and the perpetrators are being established.
Experts note that such cases often arise as a result of misinformation and hasty conclusions. According to the legislation, any dispute or suspicion should be investigated only by official bodies.
According to analysts, this incident once again demonstrated the lack of caution and prudence in society. One thing is clear - the young man performed only his official duties during work.
A pre-investigation check is currently underway. The regional Department of Internal Affairs urged citizens not to act excessively in any conflict situation and to resolve the situation legally.
