From Damas to Kia Sonet: "Halol Auto Leasing" defrauds hundreds of customers
It has been reported that two limited liability companies (LLCs), registered a month apart and operating from the same address, have defrauded hundreds of individuals. These companies promised easy car purchases and collected initial payments from victims, amounting to several billion soums. Among those deceived, some paid nearly 80 million UZS as a down payment for a Kia Sonet. Although the companies had different names and founders, they used the same seal on their contracts.

On September 30, 2024, "Halal Auto Leasing Group" LLC was officially registered, followed by the registration of "Halal Auto Leasing kompany" LLC on October 31, 2024. Officials from both companies have been accused of defrauding more than 100 people.
According to a report received by Kun.uz, the two companies signed contracts with 41 customers in October alone, agreeing to provide various car models. The total amount of initial payments accepted during this period exceeded 1.3 billion UZS.
Numerous contracts were also signed in November, in which both LLCs committed to delivering various car models, from Damas to Kia Sonet, with an annual interest rate of 7% and a delivery period of up to 105 working days.
For example, on November 4, 2024, Parviz Ahmadjonov, a resident of the Fergana region, entered into a contract with "Halal Auto Leasing kompany" LLC for a Kia Sonet. As part of the agreement, he made an initial payment of 76,667,000 UZS.
Ruqiya Ergasheva, a resident of the Urgut district in the Samarkand region, made an initial payment of over 45 million UZS on November 28, 2024, for a Tracker vehicle.
Representatives of both LLCs collected initial payments for various car models, including Damas (20-23 million UZS), Cobalt (33,770,000 UZS), Tracker (47-56 million UZS), Monza (60 million UZS), and Onix (41-45 million UZS).
Public records indicate that "Halal Auto Leasing Group" LLC was registered on September 30, 2024, with Murodjon Sultonov listed as its founder. Meanwhile, "Halal Auto Leasing kompany" LLC was registered on October 31, 2024, with Ikhtiyorjon Yuldoshev as its founder.
Both companies share the same address: 268/32 Gulobod Street, Shaykhontokhur district, Tashkent.
Despite having different names and founders, representatives of both companies used the same official seal on contracts with clients.
On November 16, 2024, Kun.uz reported on the suspicious activities of "Halal Auto Leasing kompany" LLC. Twenty days later, on December 5, the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) sealed the company's office, and criminal charges were filed against the LLC’s officials. However, the MIA did not respond to Kun.uz’s inquiries regarding the details of the case.
