[REGNUM] In Rostov-on-Don, a criminal case was opened on the fact of torture in the interregional tuberculosis hospital No. 19. This was reported by the Public Supervisory Commission of the Rostov Region.

"It became known that the Investigative Committee of the Oktyabrsky District recently opened another criminal case and is actively investigating it. In this case, there are more than 60 persons who were subjected to violence in the ILO-19. This became possible with the negligent attitude of the past leadership of the GUFSIN of Russia in the Rostov region. At the moment, the leadership of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia in the Rostov region has dismissed all the persons involved, an investigation is underway," the POC regional office said in Instagram.

During the checks carried out by representatives of the commission, it turned out that the prisoners were tied to beds. Some were held in this position for three to 72 days.

IA REGNUM does not have official comments from the GUFSIN of Russia in the Rostov region and the Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in the Rostov region.

IA REGNUM recalls that on October 5, the network posted footage of illegal actions against an unidentified man, which, according to the author of the recording, took place in the Regional Tuberculosis Hospital No. 1 of the Federal Penitentiary Service in the Saratov region. Later, new videos of torture, humiliation and violence in this hospital appeared. After the release of the videos, a criminal case was opened.

After a public outcry, the Kremlin said that the publication of video recordings of torture in places of deprivation of liberty was the reason for rather active verification actions by the relevant departments.
