According to a video posted on the YouTube page of the Namangan Regional DIA, the suspect promised $1,000 to a person (who later informed the DIA) in exchange for killing a neighbor who was suspected of having an affair with his wife.

The man who received this offer turned to the internal affairs staff and asked to take legal action against the customer. The internal affairs held an operative event, during which the victim, who was requested to be killed, was "beaten", and his photo was sent to the client. He took 11,400,000 soums and a knife to kill his neighbor, arrived at the scene. The man was arrested by operatives while putting on medical gloves and trying to attack the victim (that is, his neighbor).

According to the frame, the suspicion that prompted the man to commit the crime of hiring an assassin has not been proven.

On the same day, a criminal case was initiated under Part 1, Article 25-97 of the Criminal Code, and a precautionary measure in the form of detention was applied against the person who tried to kill his neighbor.
