Uzbekistan’s Interior Ministry has sent inspectors to gas stations and coal warehouses across Surkhandarya and Bukhara regions, following a three-day sweep in October that found 120-plus cases of illegal cylinder handling and removed 13.6 tonnes of LPG from unlawful circulation.
Interior Minister Aziz Tashpulatov has issued enforcement directives to gas and coal distributors after more than 333 tonnes of coal and 9,139 cylinders were seized from illegal circulation in a single month.
