The level of irrational behavior among some residents of the capital continues to rise. An incident in Tashkent clearly illustrates how minor everyday situations can escalate into serious conflicts involving violence. A driver of a “Malibu” who arrived at a shopping center took offense because there were no parking spaces left for him. As a result, he called his friends and they beat up the security guards of the center.
On August 23, a 39-year-old local resident arrived at the “Oltin Markazi” shopping center in his “Malibu,” intending to park in front of the building. However, when the parking attendants informed him that there were no available spaces, he took this news as a personal insult. Instead of looking for another parking spot, the man decided to act radically.
Instead of leaving the shopping center premises, he called his acquaintances, who soon arrived at the scene. Among these “helpers” were 37-year-old S.Sh., 41-year-old R.N., 44-year-old M.Sh., and 34-year-old S.M. Together, they deliberately disregarded social norms and started a scandal in front of the parking area, which soon escalated into a fight.
As a result of the attack, two security guards of the shopping center — 37-year-old G.I. and 42-year-old A.K. — were injured. They tried to stop the aggressive men, but their efforts were unsuccessful. A 29-year-old security staff member, J.I., came to his colleagues’ aid, attempting to break up the fight and stop the hooligan actions. However, instead of resolving the conflict, he himself became a victim of the attack and sustained bodily injuries.
In connection with this incident, the investigative department of the Chilanzar District Police Department initiated a criminal case under Article 277 (hooliganism) of the Criminal Code. All suspects have been detained, and an investigation is currently underway.
