The Tashkent City Court will soon begin hearing the criminal case of a 31-year-old man from the Fergana region accused of the brutal murder of a three-year-old child. The crime, which sparked widespread public outrage, took place on July 9 of this year in a rented apartment in a multi-story building in Tashkent’s Yashnabad district.
According to case materials, the accused was living in the apartment with a woman he knew. On that day, an argument broke out between them, during which the man grabbed a knife and inflicted several stab wounds on the woman’s three-year-old son from her first marriage. The child sustained severe injuries and died before he could be taken to the hospital.
The charges against the accused include several articles of the Criminal Code, including Article 97 (premeditated murder), Article 219 (resistance to a public official or a person performing civil duties), and Article 251-1 (manufacturing, distribution, and display of products promoting potent substances that are not classified as narcotics). These articles not only reflect the gravity of the crime but also point to possible additional offenses committed by the accused.
The criminal case was submitted to the Tashkent City Court on October 29 and is currently in the preparatory stage before the substantive trial begins.
