According to Nikita Makarenko’s official Telegram channel, the former Tashkent mayor, Jakhongir Ortiqkhojayev tried to flee from the city before the meeting chaired by the Uzbek President.
On January 16, Shavkat Mirziyoyev held a meeting on the provision of energy resources.
The source noted that Ortiqkhojayev was apprehended by the security service agents when he was about to leave the city with his family at the Tashkent airport.
Apparently, the main reason for Ortiqkhojayev's removal from his post was his negligence and poor preparation for the winter season.
Bakhtiyor Rahmonov, who had been his deputy mayor, was appointed as the acting khokim of the city of Tashkent.
