Tajikistani man deported for working as a courier

The police of Moscow detained a Tajik migrant in Rublyovka. He now faces deportation.

The news agency Current Time reported on October 21 that Tajik migrant Khoshimjon was working as a courier. He was detained in the elite area of the Moscow region known as Rublyovka. He has been held in custody for two weeks and faces deportation.

It is reported that he was stopped by a traffic police officer on October 8 in the Rublyovka area. His documents were checked, and he was informed that as a foreigner, he was not allowed to be in this area. Although the migrant tried to explain that he had received a delivery order from the courier service — Yandex Delivery, and he was just doing his job, he was not listened to. The police detained the courier and took him to the station.

Although he worked for Yandex Delivery as a courier, the company did not assist him.

A week later, he was informed that the Russian authorities had decided on his deportation. Khoshimjon is being held in a special center for foreigners. It is unknown when he will be deported to his homeland.

Rublyovka, an elite area west of Moscow, is built up with luxury cottage settlements. Wealthy individuals, show business stars, officials, prominent politicians, and businessmen live here.

At the same time, Rublyovka is not a secret area, and no special permission is required to enter this district.

Recently, Tajik migrants have been deported from Russia for the slightest reasons. The situation worsened after the bloody attack on the Crocus City Hall concert venue, where the main suspects were citizens of Tajikistan.
