A young woman from Samarkand left her hometown and arrived in Tashkent, reporting that she was forcibly married. She claims that she was subjected to various forms of violence—physical, psychological, and sexual—both before and after the marriage.
Currently, the young woman is trying to find a place to live in the capital, but she lacks the necessary documents and permanent housing. Her story gained public attention through the project Nemolchi.uz, to which the girl's friend initially turned, and later the victim herself.
According to information published by the project, the girl initially objected to marrying a man she only knew superficially. Nevertheless, her parents insisted on the wedding, citing that 'it was time for her.' When she tried to express her disagreement, relatives, according to her, forcibly took her away, beat her, and isolated her.
Following these events, the girl attempted suicide and was hospitalized in Samarkand. The victim believes that the medical records do not reflect the fact of pressure and violence, suggesting that relatives might have used their connections to conceal the true reasons for her hospitalization.
The situation did not improve after the wedding: the girl stated that her husband systematically subjected her to psychological, physical, and sexual violence, despite knowing that the marriage was against her will.
In Tashkent, she found a job but continues to live without permanent housing or documents. An attempt to contact the specialized hotline 1146 yielded no immediate result, as she was informed that the application review would be postponed due to the holiday period.
Nemolchi.uz also reported that after this story became public, the girl should be placed in a rehabilitation center, and law enforcement agencies plan to investigate her case. At the time of publication, no official comments were received from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the prosecutor's office, medical institutions, or other state structures regarding the circumstances of the case.
It is worth noting that a criminal case was previously initiated in Tashkent against a Greco-Roman wrestling coach whose wife accused him of systematic domestic violence; the woman was issued a restraining order and a forensic medical examination was ordered.
