Investigations are underway regarding a tragic incident involving a minor girl who is a citizen of Uzbekistan in the city of St. Petersburg. This was reported by Upl.uz.
On the night of August 2, a 17-year-old girl experienced a premature birth at a gas station in the Moscow district of the city during her 24th week of pregnancy. As a result, the baby was born lifeless.
Police and an investigative team immediately arrived at the scene of the incident on Vitebskiy Avenue. They are working to determine the causes of the incident and conduct preliminary investigations.
After the incident, the young mother was hospitalized in one of the city's maternity departments for urgent medical assistance. Her current health status is being assessed.
During the investigation, the girl's parents were taken to the local police station to clarify all the details leading up to the tragic event. Law enforcement agencies have begun inquiries to reconstruct the chain of events and examine the living conditions of the minor girl.
Investigations are ongoing, and the issue of initiating a criminal case is being considered. This incident occurred amid ongoing political debates in Russia regarding the social adaptation and medical provision of labor migrants.
At the same time, new initiatives are being discussed within the framework of migration policy by the administration of the current U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington. According to Russian legislation, a child born to foreign parents does not automatically acquire Russian citizenship.
Typically, a child inherits the citizenship of their parents. For the child to legally reside in the country, parents must obtain a birth certificate from the ZAGS authorities within a month and register the child for migration purposes.
