2023: A psychiatric nurse was arrested in Dagestan for bullying a patient, which she recorded on video

On July 21, 2023, in Dagestan, by a court order, a nurse of a neuropsychiatric dispensary was arrested, who is accused of bullying a patient.

The incident occurred on July 20, 2023 in the men's department of the GBU RD "Republican Neuropsychiatric Dispensary." A video was published on the Internet showing how an employee of a medical institution covers the head of an elderly man tied to a bed with a pillow, and the second employee records what is happening on a smartphone camera and laughs behind the scenes.

The investigation established that the suspect, while at her workplace, caused physical and mental suffering by "committing violent acts with bullying and torment against a patient of a medical institution, who is knowingly helpless for her and depending on her."

The court will consider the issue of choosing a preventive measure in the form of detention in relation to the nurse. The Investigation Department for the Soviet District of the city of Makhachkala opened a criminal case on the fact of "torture committed against a person knowingly for the guilty person, who is in a helpless state, with particular cruelty, mockery or torment for the victim" (paragraph "g," "d" part 2 of article 117 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Within the framework of the case, a set of investigative actions is being carried out aimed at consolidating the evidence base.

According to RIA Novosti, an official check was carried out at the neuropsychiatric dispensary, and both employees who participated in this incident were fired. It is said that the arrested person fully admitted her guilt and repented. During interrogation, the women said that they shot a video with the participation of a patient for a joke. The elderly man's condition did not worsen after their bullying.[1]
