Police officer has reportedly been beaten by the son of ex-Minister of Energy just for asking him not to make obstructions on a road. The police officer has been taken to a hospital with moderate bodily injuries.
An official source at the law enforcement authorities says the incident took place on one of central streets in Dushanbe in the evening of July 8.
According to him, both Dilovar Gulov, the son of the ex-Minister of Energy Gul Sherali, and Dilshod Narzullozoda, an officer of the Interior Ministry Organized Crime Control Directorate, were driving cars. Narzullozoda reportedly stopped his car and made Dilovar Gulov remark, asking him not to make obstructions on a road.
As a result of brawl that occurred between them, Dilshod Narzullozoda reportedly sustained moderate bodily injuries and was taken to a hospital.
Dilovar Gulov has reportedly been put on the wanted list but he came to police station voluntarily on July 9. The charge has not yet been brought against him.
A source at the Ministry of Health and Social Protection says the police officer was taken to the neurosurgery department of the National Health Center (Qariyai Bolo) with various moderate bodily injuries. “It is still premature to speak about Narzullozoda’s discharge from hospital,” the source added.
Meanwhile, the Interior Ministry keeps silence and has not released any statement on this incident so far.
It is not the first time that Dilovar Gulov’s gets into crime reports. On March 10, he and 12 other young men, including the ex-minister’s son-in-law Dilshod Nouralizoda, were detained for disorderly conduct. By a ruling handed down by a court in Dushanbe’s Shohmansour district all of them were sentenced to between 5 and 15 days of administrative arrest.
Besides, he was fined 5,000 somoni in summer 2015 for having tinted glasses on his car.
