The Dushanbe police investigated information circulating on social media about a man's alleged involvement in a theft. The suspicions were found to be unfounded, according to the Dushanbe Department of Internal Affairs.
According to the agency, a video surfaced on social media in which some people believed a man was involved in the crime. Upon investigation, police discovered that the recording depicted Rahim Abdurakhimov, a 65-year-old resident of the Shokhmansur district who suffers from mental illness.
"The investigation did not confirm Abdurakhimov's involvement in the theft. The information circulated online is not accurate," the Ministry of Internal Affairs noted.
Law enforcement agencies have asked residents of the capital not to jump to conclusions and, if any suspicious situations arise, to immediately contact the police by phone at (+992) 018-02-02-02 .
The Ministry of Internal Affairs emphasized that only official investigations and actions by law enforcement officers can serve as the basis for establishing the guilt of citizens, and the dissemination of unverified information can cause harm to individuals and cause social tension.
