In the Kashkadarya region, fraudsters who defrauded more than 600 citizens of nearly 6.5 billion soums are being wanted, the MIA information service reported.

Allegedly, on September 19, 2023, citizen S.N. (born in 1993) established the “Qarshi kredit” LLC in the city of Karshi.

He appointed S.J. (born in 1999) as the LLC manager. However, although S.J. was supposed to be engaged in trade, advertising and other public services, he illegally managed to attract the funds of many citizens by giving loans.

S.J. together with his criminal partners, in order to attract a lot of funds, promised to lend money to people for a down payment. They earned the trust of their customers and took 20% of the money in advance as an initial payment by saying that the promised money would be given to the customers in the form of cash within a month.

After that, they sign contracts with customers, withdraw money and pretend to transfer it to their accounts. Thus, for more than a month from September 19, 2023 to October 26, 2023, the fraudsters received 6 billion 462 million 550 thousand soums from 606 people.

Later, they embezzled a large amount of money in the form of cash and used it for their own personal needs.

On the above fact, on October 4, 2023, the investigation department of the Karshi city DIA initiated a criminal case under the relevant articles of the Criminal Code. Currently, an investigation is underway.

It is noted that the suspects S.N. and S.J. due to hiding in an unknown direction, a preventive detention measure was ordered against them in absentia and a search warrant was issued.
