The leading specialist of the "Khududgaz Jizzakh" branch, during an inspection conducted at an LLC, identified that the gas meter was faulty and drew up the relevant report. He abused his official position by demanding 6 thousand US dollars from the LLC representative to cancel the report and stop the investigation.
Employees of the State Security Service detained the employee red-handed while he was receiving the money, with material evidence. According to the results of a laboratory examination, the gas meter was faulty without external influence.
A criminal case has now been initiated against him under the relevant articles of the Criminal Code, and preliminary investigative actions are being carried out.
