The prosecutor of the Baljuvon district, Murod Mukimzoda, was relieved of his duties approximately one year after taking office.
According to available information, the decision to suspend him was made in May.
As reported by sources from Radio Ozodi, the decision to suspend the prosecutor was made following an internal investigation by the prosecutor’s office.
During the investigation, it was found that some complaints and appeals from citizens were not addressed in a timely manner.
According to the publication, the internal investigation was initiated after an incident that occurred on the night of May 20. At that time, unknown individuals set fire to the room of a local doctor, where prosecutor Murod Mukimzoda was staying during a business trip in the Sari Khosor community of the Baljuvon district.
According to sources, the owner of the property noticed the fire and pulled the prosecutor out of the building. As a result, the prosecutor was unharmed. Law enforcement agencies continue to investigate the arson.
Local residents reported that after this incident, several people were summoned for questioning. However, law enforcement agencies have not yet officially announced any suspects or disclosed possible motives for the incident.
It is worth noting that similar incidents have been recorded in the Kulyab region before. In 2023, unknown individuals set fire to the car of the then-prosecutor of the Vose district, Jumonazar Saidakhmadzoda, near his home. He was later also relieved of his duties.
Some residents of the region have repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with the work of the prosecutor’s office, complaining about rampant corruption, delays in addressing appeals, and untimely resolution of emerging problems.
