In Tashkent, Jizzakh, and Namangan, prosecutors, investigators, lawyers, and others were halted in their illegal activities. The State Security Service reported these incidents.

The district prosecutor from the Jizzakh regional prosecutor's office promised to remove a conviction for a citizen of Jizzakh, born in 1975, under Article 167 of the Criminal Code (Embezzlement or robbery by means of distribution) through his authorized colleague. In exchange for this service, he demanded $1,000 and a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra phone. He was caught with the bribe by the State Security Service.

In Tashkent, an investigator and two colleagues from the Investigative Department under the Department of Coordinating Activities of the Yakkasaroy District DIA conspired to avoid applying a preventive measure of "detention" against an accused person. They sought to reclassify his charges from Article 273-5 to paragraph "a" of Article 276, Part 2, in exchange for $7,000. They were apprehended by the State Security Service when they received the bribe.

Two individuals from Tashkent, with prior convictions, exploited the trust of a citizen born in 1980. They promised to influence a criminal case against him under Article 168 (Fraud) of the Criminal Code through their contacts in the prosecutor's office, in exchange for $50,000 to prevent detention. One of these fraudsters, born in 1970, was caught during a sting operation by the State Security Service while receiving the money. Efforts are underway to identify their contacts in the prosecutor's office.

Additionally, a lawyer from the Bar Association of Namangan City was implicated under Article 168 and other provisions of the Criminal Code. He promised to secure a non-custodial sentence for an accused individual in a current Namangan city court case, using his connections in the judicial authorities. He demanded $10,000 and was caught with $8,000 in a sting operation by the State Security Service.

It's noteworthy that this lawyer has a prior conviction under Article 25.97 of the Criminal Code.

Currently, criminal cases have been initiated against all these individuals under the relevant articles of the Criminal Code, and they have been detained as a preventive measure.
