Street singer Bozorboy accused National Guard officers of breaking his arm. Video

Underage street singer Bozorboy, who became famous after a scandal involving tourists at the capital's Chorsu Bazaar, claimed that National Guard officers broke his arm.

Footage has appeared on social media showing the boy displaying his injured arm in a stabilizing bandage. The video also includes fragments of a previously circulated video in which National Guard officers escort the boy through the market area.

However, the circumstances surrounding the injury remain unknown. There is currently no confirmation of the diagnosis or information regarding exactly when the child sustained the injury.

On September 17, National Guard officers took Bozorboy to a police station following complaints from vendors at the Eski Juva market. According to the department, the minor demanded money from visitors, including foreign tourists, and insulted them if they refused. Earlier, a video caused a wide public outcry in which the boy, after performing, demanded 100,000 sums from a tourist and then took 150,000 from him.
