It should be noted that, in accordance with the Law "On the Authorized Person of the Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan for Human Rights (Ombudsman)", the Ombudsman is not vested with the authority to conduct investigations or investigative actions. Furthermore, under Article 19 of this Law, the Ombudsman does not consider appeals that fall under the jurisdiction of the court, nor complaints from individuals regarding the actions (or inaction) of other private individuals that infringe upon their rights, freedoms, and lawful interests.

During the reception, the Ombudsman provided legal clarifications on several appeals, while those falling within the Ombudsman’s jurisdiction were accepted for further review. Appeals requiring on-site examination were forwarded to the Ombudsman’s regional representatives in the respective territories.

Citizens are reminded that they may also contact the Ombudsman’s regional representatives directly or submit electronic appeals through the official website ombudsman.uz and the Ombudsman’s mobile application.
