In a fight between Alisher Gulov, the son of Sherali Gul, the former Minister of Industry and Energy, and Sherdil Sirojov, the son of a businessman and the owner of the former “Jal-Jam” market, five people were injured from both sides.
The incident happened around 3 o’clock in the morning on November 30 in the entertainment center “Bukhara Palace” in Dushanbe.
Two sources of Radio Ozodi in Dushanbe law enforcement authorities said on December 1 that both parties were drunk and it is not yet clear whose fault the fight started.
“The incident is being investigated by Ismail Somoni’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and probably due to the intervention of influential parties, it may not be properly investigated,” said a source of Radio Ozodi, who did not want to be named.
According to Radio Ozodi sources, four of the wounded, two of Alisher Gulov and Sherdil Sirojov’s friends and a friend, were transferred to the Upper Qaria hospital in Dushanbe. Both sides used knives and irons in the fight.
Interlocutors of Radio Ozodi said that Alisher Gulov was an employee of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Tajikistan.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Tajikistan did not explain the incident.
Sherdil Sirojov, who is hospitalized in Karia Bolo hospital, confirmed the incident in an interview with Radio Ozodi on December 1, but said that he is not guilty. “Go and see the cameras, it’s their fault, if you see the cameras, you will understand everything yourself. We were two people, they were 12-13 people,” he said.
Sherdil Sirojov said about the possible reasons for the fight, Alisher Gulov “had enmity towards me, that’s why there were many and they beat us.”
Sherdil Sirojov refused to talk further and did not explain the details. His relatives said, “They have no claims.”
Our efforts to contact Alisher Gulov’s family were unsuccessful. His father and mother did not answer our calls.
Witnesses said that they saw police officers in front of “Dushanbe Palace” on the morning of November 30. The railings of the stairs at the entrance of this building were broken.
A doctor of Upper Qaria, without mentioning his name, said that on the morning of November 30, Sherdil and his friend Mirsaid were brought here with wounds on his head and body.
There have been many fights involving the sons of Sherali Gul, former official and godfather of Emomali Rahmon, the president of Tajikistan. Dilovar Gulov, his other son, was arrested at least three times in the last five years on charges of “hooliganism”, but he was released with a fine or a light sentence. His relatives always considered him innocent.
The Dushanbe police, which reports on the simplest violations in the city, does not explain the scandals involving the sons of officials and influential people.
