Traffic policemen who demanded lunch as a bribe fired in Samarkand
A law enforcement officer stopped a car and asked the driver to bring lunch for three.
Earlier, social networks spread a report that a traffic policeman stopped a car and, complaining that he had been standing in the sun for 50 days and felt depressed, asked the driver to bring lunch for three people.
The driver gave the inspector 70,000 soums, which the inspector gave to a colleague who was sitting in the Nexia car.
As UzNews.uz was informed by the Samarkand regional DIA, the inspectors were dismissed from the internal affairs bodies.
An internal investigation on the fact of bribery is currently underway.
