Law enforcement received an alarming call from residents of the “Fergana” mahalla, reporting an unstable man wandering the streets with a knife and a wooden stick. He was behaving aggressively, harassing passersby and provoking confrontations.
Two preventive inspectors, assigned to night duty in the area, promptly arrived at the scene. They attempted to calm the man and prevent his hooligan actions. However, instead of complying with the lawful demands of the officers, the man actively resisted. Armed with a knife and a stick, he attacked the inspectors, inflicting bodily injuries on them.
