Recently, a video recorded in one of the schools in Karakalpakstan has spread widely on social media, causing a public outcry. The footage shows three women unexpectedly entering a classroom during a lesson and forcefully dragging out a resisting and loudly screaming child. The teacher, who tried to prevent the incident, was met with aggression from one of the women. Many social media users described the incident as a kidnapping.
According to eyewitnesses and participants, one of the women turned out to be the mother of the boy, a first-grade student. Together with her friends, she burst into the classroom and, despite the teacher’s protests, forcefully took her son from the school.
The Children’s Ombudsman reported that the incident took place on September 5 at School No. 28 in the Ellikkala district of Karakalpakstan. It was revealed that the cause of the incident was a family dispute between relatives over who the child should live with. Material and legal issues regarding custody are currently being discussed in court.
At the moment, the child’s mother and others involved in the incident have been subjected to administrative responsibility, and the relevant documents have been submitted to the court.
The Ombudsman emphasized that the boy’s right to education has been restored, and he is continuing his studies at school, where he is receiving support from teachers.
The Children’s Ombudsman also expressed concern about the situation and stressed that such matters should be resolved exclusively within the legal framework, not in the classroom where children are studying. She urged parents to respect the educational process and children’s rights, as well as to resolve family disputes in a civilized manner.
