A man arrested for sexually assaulting a girl next to him during a movie screening in a cinema

A 25-year-old man was arrested for sexually assaulting a girl who was sitting next to him during the screening of the film "Paradise Under the Feet of Mothers" in a cinema in Tashkent. This was reported by the source QALAMPIR.UZ.

On May 10, the head of the cinema's security department appealed to the internal affairs authorities and requested legal action, informing them that the man had engaged in various sexual acts with the girl seated beside him in the public venue.

Today, on May 14, during the court session held at the Chilonzor district court on criminal cases, the offender confessed to the crime. He stated that he had gone to the cinema with his daughter, whom he plans to marry in the future, and that he acted out of a feeling of love because he missed her. The girl told him that "It's not right for us to do this in a public place," but he still touched her and asked for relief.

The girl who participated in the court session reported that the man flirted with her, kissed her, and touched her body.

According to the court's decision, the young man was sentenced to 5 days of administrative imprisonment, and he was ordered to pay 15 percent of the base calculation amount, i.e., 255,000 soums, to the reception facility for each day of imprisonment.
