A shocking case of brutal murder occurred in Fergana: a woman was sentenced to 15 years in prison for stabbing her friend over 20 times and setting the house on fire to cover up the crime. The tragedy was motivated by the defendant’s debt issues.
This story was reported by “Rukhsor TV.”
The investigation revealed that the defendant was deeply in debt, with the total amount around 12 million soms. Driven by this financial burden, she committed the crime. According to the victim’s daughter, the mother had sensed danger and warned her daughter not to open the door to the defendant.
However, on the tragic day, the defendant came to her friend’s house when she was alone. A quarrel ensued, during which the defendant stabbed her friend over 20 times with a knife she had brought with her. To cover her tracks, she set the house on fire, leaving her friend’s body in the flames. As she left, the woman took more than $2,000 and some gold jewelry, hoping to use these valuables to pay off part of her debt.
This crime shocked the public not only with its brutality but also with its cynicism: the defendant essentially valued her friend’s life at 12 million soms. Despite her confession, the court delivered a harsh sentence of 15 years in prison. The convicted woman has a minor child who will now grow up without a mother.
