In recent days, the situation in the Central Detention Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, commonly known as «Tashkent Prison,» has raised serious concerns. According to information received from lawyer Abdumalik Abdullaev, prisoners are complaining en masse about the lack of water and overcrowded cells.

Water Supply Issues

One of the main reasons for the prisoners’ dissatisfaction is a serious problem with the water supply. Water is provided for only 4-6 hours a day, which is clearly insufficient to meet people’s basic needs. This water supply regime not only creates discomfort but also poses a threat to the health of the prisoners.

Overcrowded Cells

Another factor aggravating the situation is the overcrowding of cells. When the number of prisoners exceeds the established norms, the risk of spreading infectious diseases significantly increases, and the overall health condition of the prisoners deteriorates. These conditions also lead to increased tension and conflicts among the prisoners.

Lack of Medical Care

Prisoners also complain about the lack of attention to their health and inadequate medical care. The absence of timely medical assistance and preventive measures can lead to serious health consequences for people in isolation.

Appeal to the Ombudsman

In light of the aforementioned problems, there is an urgent need for intervention by the authorized bodies. Therefore, Abdumalik Abdullaev has called on the Human Rights Commissioner (Ombudsman) of the Oliy Majlis to investigate the situation in «Tashkent Prison» and take necessary measures to improve the conditions of the prisoners.
