Reports about an Uzbek student who drowned and died in Bulgaria had circulated on August 7 of this year.
Subsequently, on August 9, it became known that his body was recovered from among large rocks near the city of Sozopol.
The student's body was stuck between the rocks, and it was not easy to retrieve it. At the same time, the body was brought to Uzbekistan.
According to a report from Uzbekistan's Consulate General in Istanbul, along with the student who drowned in Bulgaria, the bodies of 5 citizens who died in Turkey were also repatriated.
Furthermore, discounts were provided to 12 citizens who had incurred heavy debts in hospitals, and practical assistance was rendered for their return to Uzbekistan.
The Consulate also stated that it had processed the necessary documents for 27 citizens who were left without documents in Turkey and assisted in their return.
We remind you that the deceased 22-year-old young man was a student studying in Bulgaria.
He was caught in a strong current that pulled him underwater while he was out swimming with friends. Rescue workers searched for 9 hours, but it was the young man's Uzbek, Kyrgyz, and Moldovan friends who managed to find the body.
