The head of the city land management committee of the Isfara administration, Muhammad Bobozoda, has been detained on suspicion of receiving a bribe. This was announced at a press conference by the chairman of Isfara, Sharifjon Jumazoda.
According to him, Muhammad Bobozoda was relieved of his duties on January 6 of this year. An initial investigation is currently underway.
Asia-Plus news agency, citing an anonymous source, reported that Bobozoda is currently being held in a detention center.
There is currently no official information regarding the amount of the bribe, who it was received from, or which agency detained the former head of the Isfara land management committee.
Neither Muhammad Bobozoda nor his relatives and lawyer are available for comment at this time.
Every year, dozens of officials are detained on charges of illegal land transactions; however, this practice continues.
Observers familiar with the situation assert that government representatives and high-ranking officials themselves sell land, prepare documents, receive bribes, or, using their familial and other connections, allocate land to certain individuals. Meanwhile, needy residents repeatedly appeal to the authorities and wait for years to receive a plot of land for building a house, but are unable to obtain it.
Experts claim that corruption and bribery are so widespread in all sectors of the country that preventing corruption is practically impossible. According to them, this official obtained his position in this manner, having bought the position for a substantial sum, and he must find a way to recoup his money. Thus, the highest leadership of the country is primarily involved in corruption, indicating the complete entrenchment of corruption in our country.
