KHUJAND, April 13, 2015, Asia-Plus — Director of bazaar in the Bobojonghafourov district is standing trial for beating an orphaned boy to death.

The trial began on April 13 and the Nazari Nek bazaar director Rustam Jourayev shares the dock with the bazaar guard chief Ahliddin Fayziyev and one of the bazaar guards Bobour Yusupov.

Proceedings started with the reading of the indictment, which charges them with murder and deliberately inflicting serious bodily injury.

The fourth person involved in this case, Tojiyev, who runs shop at this bazaar, faces charges of deliberately inflicting light bodily harm.

At the request of teenagers’ defense lawyers the trial was adjourned until April 16.

We will recall that according to the Interior Ministry’s office for Sughd, the Nazari Nek bazaar director Rustam Jourayev, the bazaar guard chief Ahliddin Fayziyev and the bazaar guard Bobour Yusupov detained two inmates of the Chkalovsk boarding school on the bazaar’s territory in the night of January 15.  The teenagers reportedly stole food products and 380 somoni.

“The men severely beat the teenagers and one of them, who had neither father nor mother, died later in hospital,” Akbar Sharipov, a spokesman for the Interior Ministry’s office in Sughd, said.
