Additional information was provided on the farmer who came out of the DIA dead

Earlier, it was reported that a 42-year-old woman and her child were killed, and their house was set on fire. On February 25, a 50-year-old farmer, Tohirjon Khayitov, who had been involved in the investigation of this case, was handed over to his family deceased.  

According to reports, Tohirjon Khayitov died of a heart attack, and an inquiry has been filed with the prosecutor's office regarding his death. This was stated by the Ombudsman of the Oliy Majlis for Human Rights.  

It was noted that, based on the Uzun District Criminal Court’s decision dated February 24, 2025, the farmer was found guilty under Article 183 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (petty hooliganism) and was sentenced to six days of administrative detention. While being transported to the administrative detention center in Termez, his health deteriorated, and he was taken to the Saryosiyo district medical aid department, where medical workers later declared him dead.  

A forensic medical examination conducted in the Saryosiyo district determined that Khayitov had died due to ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, cardiac aneurysm, and cardiac tamponade. He also suffered from complications of pyelonephritis and arteriosclerosis. The examination concluded that no injuries or signs of physical trauma were found on his body.  

The Saryosiyo district prosecutor’s office is conducting a pre-investigation inquiry into the case, with oversight from the regional prosecutor’s office. Additionally, the Ombudsman has submitted a request to the Prosecutor General’s Office regarding the incident.  

QALAMPIR.UZ reached out to Hayot Shamsutdinov, the press secretary of the Prosecutor General’s Office, for further details on the case. According to him, a pre-investigation inquiry is currently underway.  

For reference, on February 15, a 42-year-old woman and her child were killed, and their house was set on fire in the Uzun district of Surkhandarya region. On February 23, at approximately 12:00, Tohirjon Khaitov was taken from his home in the Uzun district for questioning. Two days later, on February 25, he was handed over to his family deceased.
