Drawing on first-instance and appellate judgments issued in Uzbekistan in 2026 and amendments to Articles 118 and 119 of the Criminal Code introduced by the Law of October 14, 2026, this article identifies systemic shortcomings in the legal classification of rape involving minors. It reveals inconsistent approaches to determining when sexual intercourse begins, the lack of clear criteria for distinguishing attempted rape from indecent acts, findings of victims’ helplessness in cases involving persons over fourteen without expert evidence, divergent interpretations of threats to disclose intimate images, and the continued use of outdated wording concerning offenders’ awareness of victims’ ages. The article argues that increasing the penalty to life imprisonment heightens the importance of these distinctions. It proposes specific additions to Supreme Court Plenum Resolution No. 13 and an amendment to Article 121 of the Criminal Code introducing information-based coercion.
