Remember the wonderful movie “Deja Vu”? There’s an American gangster come to Odessa to kill a dishonest supplier of moonshine. According to legend he was – a professor from the United States, travel to Sumatra in order to catch “butterflies”, and called at Odessa on the grave of my mother. That’s what I felt in Uzbekistan as the professor in Odessa – under the watchful eye of the KGB.
Why Tashkent, and not any other part of Central Asia? It’s simple – Badger was born in Tashkent. We thought my husband and I decided to go. And he dared to let me go! The motivation was simple – well, when I was still in sound mind and memory will travel to Central Asia? I was right – never let …
By the way, in terms of ethnic unrest in Central Asia in 1992 was peaceful. Since that year we have chosen correctly. Uzbeks are afraid that a wave of turmoil in Tajikistan and will be … Guarding the border, they then rigorously. Hold out …

Let’s go in September. Train. At this present Vovk. He, you see, liked to take a train in Moscow in the autumn rain, drink a beer or something stronger, go to bed on the top shelf – and wake up already in Kazakhstan among the men on camels. We drove four people in a coupe – with us was a girl who was traveling to Tashkent to relatives (she was going with us into the wilderness – but relatives were not allowed!). How many were going – remember the hard, the train stopped at every passing by a camel (camels are particularly relevant for the Tashkent – yeah …) By the way – in our Central Asian camels all – dromedaries, ie odnogorbovye beautiful animals.
All right, the animals – later. We arrived in Tashkent. Accommodated in parents Badger. That’s where I first saw, that is – to live when all the rooms on the windows – blinds. When Vova forbade me to go out in shirt and breeches (a T-shirt and skirt, but in everything, he would have me in paranzhu rolled!), In protest to badger reviewed all series “Sherlock Holmes” on video tape. When Vova otozlilsya (a day or 2), went to the Alay market …

Uzbekistan Travel Detective

Lawyer very lively chirped clearly learned phrases: “a contract with the buyer turputevki, in accordance with the Civil Code, is an open and public act and, therefore, can not be terminated unilaterally by:

Cool! It turns out, to come to meet us (in that hard to believe): to solve our problems, we should collect (as we learned with the judge) all that the public (ie, the Muscovites), who were present at the conclusion of this transaction. But even if it were possible, it turns out to solve this problem based on our cost Uzbek travel agency not even going!

Since: Uzbekistan travel guide, signed a contract with the seller stays Central Asia Tour, transferred to them 100% VALUE: “. And, thus, the losses incurred by the Uzbekistan travel agency at 100% of the cost of the tour. “: What we have been notified in advance (something I do not remember) at the conclusion of the contract:”. Even the Lord God reserves in such cases, the sinners at least some hope. Travel company does not leave one percent of hope. : Abandon hope all ye who enter there included:

Incidentally, the judge almost fell from my chair when I heard this phrase from a lawyer. As it turns out, expressing their grievances, we are not bound by the articles of the Civil Code, on any “public acts, committed by nationals of Uzbekistan, as in this case, we have entered a buyers and sellers. AND PEOPLE nothing to do with. And we have every right to be guided by the regulations of the Code of Consumer Protection (which is approved by the Government of Uzbekistan in view of our civil rights). And we are not obliged (according to the judge) to delve into relationships with travel companies Uzbekistan seller stays Central Asia Tour.

Therefore, due to the fact that we were not able to take advantage of the proposed service (turputevkoy), the Court recognized the legitimacy of our claims and recovered from the defendant the full value of one of the unused vouchers, as well – a fine to the state for failure to fulfill its contractual obligations. PRECEDENT CREATED!

By the way, the lawyer tried to kick and wanted otsporit cost of the unused charter flight. What, they say, they do not return the money for the unused flight. Such conditions they have. At that the judge rightly said that all transactions are committed on the territory of Uzbekistan are governed by uniform legislation, and the buyer is not obliged to delve into the monetary relationship with a third party seller (see above).

A Uzbekistan travel agency , through its lawyer, advised to engage REALLY tourism industry of  Uzbekistan, and not collecting money from people.

Within 10 days of the signing of a court, travel agency could challenge him to a higher court, ie, in the Tashkent City Court. Of course, to do so they will not be for two reasons: – the second such disgrace their lawyer did not make, as if I was not sorry for her (she refuses to, or be fired after the second failure), – to hire an experienced lawyer, you want to pay him amount equal to one tenth of a claim (in our case it will be – $ 50 from a claim of $ 500). But! Lawyers refuse such work, if they share at the same time is less than $ 200!

Arrived:

By the way, if they have the courage to appeal and, thus, participate in the continuation of this fascinating series, we attach a lawyer. My close friend. It has long been interested in our judicial process (such unselfish sport scabies). All walks and moan: “Well, let me: Well let:” And I said to him: “Wait, is not the evening:”

P.S. Continuation was coming. I hope so.

P.S.S. Many thanks, from me and my family, all readers of detective for your time (I hope at least something has helped you), as well as all those who entered into correspondence with me (I think I did not hurt unduly?). Sorry if that is not so.

P.S.S.S. Edited this last (?) Chapter and I hasten to communicate the following. The bailiff, who handed over the court’s decision on this issue already, soon as a month, crying, that he could not find legal requisites “Uzbekistan” to recover money from them.

By the way, anyone knows the popular legal site on where to put the stories of victims (from the tourist industry, I already seem to gradually fallen out)? Tell if not more difficult.
