As the PGO press secretary Khayot Shamsutdinov told Kun.uz, the incident occurred on June 22 at 08:15.

A young man, M.E., living in the Uzunnavo mahalla, came to the university with the goal of killing 4th year student S.T. He stabbed her several times with a kitchen knife and then plunged the knife into his stomach.

Both victims were hospitalized. The girl is in serious condition.

According to preliminary data, M.E. had a fight with S.T., whom he had previously known, and intended to kill her because her parents refused her engagement to him.

It is noted that a criminal case has been initiated against M. Erkinov.

Currently, the prosecutor’s office is conducting preliminary investigative actions.
