Two young Tajiks were detained in Russia on suspicion of harassing underage girls.
After the Tajikistan Culture Festival in Krasnoyarsk, a scandal erupted. Two Tajiks were detained. According to local media, they were harassing 14-year-old girls.
In Krasnoyarsk, following the “Tajikistan Culture” festival, for which local authorities allocated several million, two citizens of Tajikistan were detained.
As reported by local media, after the event concluded, they headed to the beach, where they began to harass 14-year-old local girls.
The offenders were taken to the police station, and the question of their deportation is now being considered.
Previously, the Krasnoyarsk city administration invited residents to the Tajik festival.
A video has also circulated on social media showing the detention of these two young men inside a police car.
Russian authorities stated that the investigation into the case is ongoing.
It is reported that the incident occurred after the cultural event of Tajikistan and has caused a wide public outcry in Russian society.
According to activists among migrants, such unlawful actions by individual migrants can increase discontent and irritation among the local population and negatively affect the reputation of hundreds of thousands of law-abiding and hardworking Tajik migrants.
Critics of the authorities note that despite the mass migration of tens of thousands of young people to Russia and other countries, the government of Tajikistan, particularly the Ministry of Culture, has still not been able to implement an effective mechanism for promoting and educating youth about the national culture of our people, behavioral norms in foreign societies, and adherence to moral values among migrants.
