Earlier, Effect.uz reported that Nargis Saidnazirxanova, the head of “DNA Motors” LLC and a former deputy of the Yangihayot District Council in Tashkent, was detained on suspicion of fraud.
It was reported that she is accused under Article 168 (fraud) of the Criminal Code. According to the investigation, Saidnazirxanova abused her official position and misappropriated funds by taking advantage of citizens' trust. She allegedly also collected money from a number of clients by promising to import electric vehicles from China.
Earlier, Nargis Saidnazirxanova commented to Effect.uz regarding the car dealership's activities, acknowledging delays in vehicle deliveries and guaranteeing that clients would not be deceived.
“Certain delays occur due to objective and subjective reasons. This situation is also specified in the contract,” she had said.
According to open data, “DNA Motors” has been importing electric vehicles from abroad for the past four years. 42.5 percent of the company's shares belong to Nargis Saidnazirxanova, and 57.5 percent to Saidamil Saidnazirxanov, according to records.
It is reported that the number of victims affected by the company's activities may exceed 50 people. Additionally, nearly 10 citizens have appealed to investigative authorities regarding issues related to Saidnazirxanova's activities as a deputy.
Currently, the preliminary investigation into the criminal case initiated against the officials of the LLC by the Investigative Department under the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of Tashkent has been completed. The case is being sent to court via the Tashkent City Prosecutor's Office with an indictment.
During the investigation, the head of the company, Nargis Saidnazirxanova, was charged with multiple episodes, and a preventive measure in the form of detention was applied against her.
