A new incident involving dangerous rides occurred in Uzbekistan. Previously, we reported on several similar objects. For example, in the Andijan region, a “Ferris wheel” was operating, which was falling apart before people’s eyes, as well as a cable car with rusty structures and poorly secured cables. This time, a dangerous ride nearly caused a major tragedy in the Chust district of the Namangan region.
On July 30, an incident occurred in the Chust district’s park of culture and recreation, resulting in injuries to four people. During the ride, a technical malfunction occurred, causing it to collide with a tree branch. Three people sustained minor injuries, and one was taken to the emergency department with a femur fracture.
Emergency assistance was provided to the patients, and all of them were discharged on the same day.
Local authorities noted that reports stating some of the injured were in critical condition in the ICU are unfounded.
An investigation is currently underway. The authorities of the Namangan region and the park of culture and recreation management promised to take all necessary measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
It is important to note that this is not the first case where rides in Uzbekistan pose a danger to the lives and health of citizens. Such situations underscore the need for stricter control and regular inspections of the technical condition of rides. Citizens should be confident in the safety of recreational facilities, and ride owners are obliged to comply with all safety norms and standards.
