By its Jan. 30 resolution, the Central Election Commission removed the former Tashkent mayor and member of the Tashkent deputies council, Jahongir Ortiqhodjaev from the list of Senate members.
The decision was made taking into account the early termination of the powers of the deputy of the Tashkent City Council of People's Deputies, as well as the request written on the resignation of his powers as the senator.
As reported earlier, on January 27, the Tashkent council approved the decision to terminate the deputy mandate of Jahongir Ortiqhodjaev ahead of schedule.
On January 16, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev announced the sacking of Jahongir Ortiqhodjaev, who had been in charge of the capital's administration since April 2018.
