Teenage girls clash with boys in Andijan district (video)

A video showing teenage girls involved in a conflict circulated on social media on November 3, prompting a response from the Khojaabad District Administration in Andijan.

The incident reportedly took place on November 2 around 13:00 in the "27th Anniversary of Independence" neighborhood of Khojaabad district. It began when the 16-year-old sister of D.R., a resident, discovered that her 14-year-old friend, R.Kh., was in a dispute with another group of girls. D.R.'s sister recorded the confrontation between two girls, M. and R., on Abad Street and posted the video on Instagram.

According to reports, the conflict arose when M.M. argued with her boyfriend, who she had met through Instagram, over alleged conversations with another girl, R.I. The disagreement led both girls to bring classmates to the meetup, escalating the situation into a physical altercation.

"Authorities have identified those involved and registered the case in the "E-material" database of the Khojaabad District Department of Internal Affairs. The Khojaabad DIA is currently investigating the matter," the report states.

Earlier, a similar incident occurred in Tashkent’s Yangihayot district, where a schoolgirl faced "samosud" (vigilante justice) by other girls at a construction site over circulating rumors.
