In Samarkand, an instructor at the “G.Kh.” driving school, identified as G.K., was found to have issued a counterfeit driver’s license in exchange for $600 without requiring the individual to attend any classes. Investigators further documented the return of $100 by G.K., with the transaction recorded as part of the investigative procedure.

Meanwhile, in Andijan, a coordinated operation involving the Shahrihan District branch and local law enforcement officials resulted in the arrest of Sh.Kh., an accountant at the regional office of the Vatanparvar organization. Sh.Kh. was apprehended accepting 5.2 million UZS in return for a forged certificate confirming completion of driver’s education courses.

Criminal cases have been initiated under relevant articles of Uzbekistan’s Criminal Code, and investigations are underway to address these incidents and prevent further fraudulent activities.
