An incident that occurred in a children's playground in the capital and its video footage spread on social media, attracting widespread public attention. This was reported by Upl.uz.
Initial reports indicated that three adults attacked a minor child together, which sparked extensive discussions on how to resolve conflicts among children. The Tashkent City Department of Internal Affairs issued an official statement regarding this incident.
According to the information, the incident took place on April 28 of this year at around 16:00 in the "Shifokorlar" neighborhood of the Almazar district. It was revealed that a 36-year-old woman physically affected the child due to a conflict between her child and the victim.
The injured child sought medical attention, and a forensic examination was conducted. According to the official conclusion, the injuries were minor and did not cause serious harm to health.
An administrative case has been initiated against the woman regarding this incident, and a fine has been imposed based on Article 52 of the Administrative Responsibility Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan. This incident has once again revived discussions in society about parental responsibility and methods for resolving conflicts among children.
Public opinion is divided into two parts: one group strongly criticizes the use of force against the child by adults, while others view the mother's actions as a natural reaction to protect her child. Nevertheless, this situation raises important legal and ethical questions in society: can conflicts among children justify physical intervention by adults, and what legal boundaries exist for such actions?
According to Article 19 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, ratified by Uzbekistan in 1994, states are obligated to take all necessary legal, administrative, social, and promotional measures to protect children from physical or mental violence, abuse, and exploitation. Thus, protecting children's rights and safeguarding them from violence is one of the priority tasks of society.
