School guard was sentenced for operating a brothel in Bukhara

In the Shofirkon district of the Bukhara region, a school guard was sentenced to one year in prison for operating a brothel in the school gym's locker room, charging clients 60,000 soums for access. QALAMPIR.UZ got acquainted with the court verdict.

According to court documents, the incident took place on July 16 when the guard, employed at School No. 38, rented the gym’s changing room for intimate encounters. The Shofirkon district’s internal affairs department apprehended him in possession of the payment as part of a special operation.

During the court proceedings, the guard admitted his actions, leading to a guilty verdict under part 2 of Article 131 of Uzbekistan’s Criminal Code, which addresses maintaining a brothel.

This conviction follows another recent case in Shofirkon where a woman was detained for running a brothel in a maternity hospital, charging 200,000 soums for similar services.
