Woman, who promised to arrange purchase of USD at “favorable” price, misappropriates 460 million soums of a man in Tashkent

Recently, a 41-year-old man appealed to the capital’s police department.

Reportedly, the man asked for measures to be taken against a 34-year-old woman who promised him to exchange a large sum of money in the bank – 460 million soums for $65,700 at a “favorable” price – 7,000 soums per $1.

“Trusting the woman completely, the man transferred her a total of 460 million soums in January-March of the current year. Nevertheless, the woman did not fulfill her promise and spent the money on her personal needs,” the police department said.

On this fact, a criminal case has been initiated against the woman under Article 168 (Fraud) of the Criminal Code of Uzbekistan.
