A recent incident on a Tashkent bus has sparked outrage on social media. A man behaved aggressively toward a woman who removed her jacket due to the heat, spitting at her and labeling her actions as “indecent.”
This story was reported by the TV channel “Milliy TV.”
How Did It Happen?
According to the victim, it all started with a simple situation.
“That day, when I got on the bus, it was warm outside. I was wearing a t-shirt, jeans, and a jacket. It became hot inside the bus, so I took off my jacket. As I was about to get off at my stop, I started putting my jacket back on, and that’s when this man began yelling. He accused me of undressing and insulted me. I was in shock,” the woman recounted.
The woman explained that her actions were purely for comfort, but the man not only continued to accuse her but escalated to aggression.
“You can see in the video that he claims I was undressing. I was wearing ordinary clothes, nothing provocative. This man was just looking for a reason to start a conflict,” she added.
What Did the Man Say?
During the trial, the man attempted to defend himself.
“When I was asked if I had really spat in her face, I said no. Perhaps what I said in the video was distorted. I apologized on the same day,” he stated.
However, his behavior, recorded on video, served as compelling evidence in the case.
Court Decision
The Criminal Court of the Uchtepa District found the man guilty of an offense under Article 183 of the Administrative Code (minor hooliganism). He was sentenced to ten days of administrative detention.
This incident raises an important question about the culture of behavior in public transport. No one has the right to intrude aggressively into another person’s personal space, impose their norms, or humiliate others. In this case, the law worked to protect the victim, but it is crucial to ensure that such situations do not happen again.
