Tragic family conflict in Kazan: Uzbek mother found guilty of negligence

In Kazan, Russia, a 40-year-old Uzbek citizen, identified as S.B., was found guilty of causing the death of her 17-year-old son due to negligence. This was reported by the press service of the Novo-Savinov District Court.

Details of the Case: The court determined that S.B. had intentionally inflicted minor injuries using a weapon, which ultimately led to her son’s death due to carelessness. She was sentenced to 1 year and 4 months in prison. However, considering the time she had already spent in pre-trial detention since July 28, 2024, S.B. was released from serving the remainder of her sentence, and her precautionary measures were lifted.

The incident occurred in July 2024 during a dispute between a mother and son. Investigations revealed that the argument escalated, leading S.B. to stab her son twice. Despite medical efforts, the teenager could not be saved and was later buried in Uzbekistan.

Background Information: S.B., originally from Urgench, is 40 years old and trained as a marketing specialist. She worked at a Turkish restaurant and had been living legally in Russia. During the trial, the victim’s father spoke in court, and his sister submitted a letter, both describing S.B. as a kind and compassionate woman incapable of harming her son. The father also mentioned that the teenager had attempted suicide multiple times in the past.

Previous Incident: Earlier, in the Moscow region, a 35-year-old Uzbek man was accused of sexually assaulting his 11-year-old stepdaughter over nearly a month.
