Court case filed following clash between student and teacher in Kashkadarya

A case involving a conflict between a student and a teacher at a school in the Kashkadarya region has been submitted to court. This incident prompted a response from the Children's Ombudsman.

On October 17, 2023, a confrontation occurred at secondary school No. 32 in the city of Karshi between 16-year-old student E.U. and algebra teacher M.M. Reports indicate that the disagreement escalated into a verbal altercation. Subsequently, the teacher struck the student in the face, and the situation intensified when the student attempted to defend herself.

The Internal Affairs Department of Karshi City is currently investigating the matter. The case materials have been forwarded to court under Article 183 of the Code of Administrative Responsibility, which addresses minor hooliganism.

This incident follows a previous case in which the director of the 38th general education school in the Altinkol district of Andijan was dismissed for physically assaulting students.
