Individual was jailed for “lynching” a boy who told his sister he loved him

Earlier, in the Pastdargom district of the Samarkand region, it was reported that a brother had taken a boy, who had expressed his love to the brother's sister, inside his house, inflicted physical injuries on him, and allegedly cut his hair and eyebrows with scissors before kicking him out to punish the student.

Yesterday, on July 29, the citizen who punished the student was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months of imprisonment. This was reported by the Children's Ombudsman.

It was noted that the criminal case related to the violence against this child was heard in the Pasdargom district court on criminal cases. Citizen A.Q. was found guilty of injuring B.S., a boy born in 2009. The court sentenced him to 1 year and 6 months of imprisonment under Article 105, Part 1 of the Criminal Code.

We remind you that earlier in Samarkand, a man who insulted children for stealing apples from a garden by tying them with a rope, beating them, and inflicting physical injuries was subjected to lynching. It was also reported that a woman who stole clothes from a store in Namangan was subjected to lynching.
