The law enforcement agencies of Dushanbe have detained 18-year-old Faizullo Komyob Mashrab and 19-year-old Akhtamzoda Oyatullo Khushbakht.

The young men are the main suspects in a fatal traffic accident that occurred on the night of September 21 to 22, resulting in the death of singer Nekruz Niyozov, who was standing on the roadside at the time of the accident.

According to Asia-Plus, citing the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Dushanbe, a criminal case has been initiated regarding the accident under Article 212, Part 2 (Violation of traffic rules and operation of vehicles resulting in death due to negligence) of the Criminal Code of Tajikistan.

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the investigation is ongoing, and it is currently unclear who is at fault.

This article provides for imprisonment for up to five years and deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for up to three years.

Relatives of the young singer told Radio Ozodi that due to the severe impact, Nekruz fell into a ditch and sustained a serious head injury. A taxi driver took him to the hospital. On the morning of September 22, the singer died in the “Kariyai Bolo” hospital. He was buried in the village of Vozm in the Shugnan district of GBAO.

18-year-old Faizullo Komyob Mashrab is the son of the rector of the Russian-Tajik Slavic University. The rector’s opinion is currently unavailable.

Little is known about 19-year-old Akhtamzoda Oyatullo Khushbakht. It is unclear whether he is the son or close relative of a high-ranking official.

According to the latest information, Komyob and Oyatullo study at the Russian-Tajik Slavic University, in the same year but in different groups. They are currently in custody and giving testimonies, with each accusing the other of the fatal accident.

This is not the first time the names of officials’ children have appeared in the media due to fatal traffic accidents. In 2013, three people died under the wheels of a car driven by a minor, Rasuli Amonullo, the son of Amonullo Khukumatullo, the former head of the Tajik Railway and a relative of the President of Tajikistan. However, authorities stated that Rasuli Amonullo was not driving the vehicle at the time of the accident.

Also, in September 2016, 23-year-old Faromuz Saidov, the son of the First Deputy Prime Minister of Tajikistan Davlatali Saidov, became the cause of an accident that resulted in the deaths of two people. Authorities attributed the blame to the vehicle and stated that the cause of the accident was a technical malfunction of the car. Faromuz Saidov was not held accountable.
