In Yekaterinburg, the case against the former director of a special school where children were raped was dropped.

      Investigators have discontinued the criminal prosecution of Natalya Poddubnaya, the former director of Yekaterinburg special school No. 124, where instances of sexual abuse of pupils came to light. She had previously been accused of negligence. From this point the woman has the right to rehabilitation.

      — The investigative authorities decided on December 30 to close the criminal case due to her non-involvement in the alleged act. Natalya Poddubnaya has the right to rehabilitation and compensation for damages, her lawyer Yulia Lapteva told the Ura.Ru agency.

      Recall that in spring 2023 it became known that pupils at special school No. 124 in the Sverdlovsk Region were being raped as punishment for misdeeds. As Mash reported, a 13-year-old pupil ran away during lessons and told his mother everything. According to the boy, the punishment was ordered by a 76-year-old teacher, who forced two 15-year-old senior pupils to "discipline" the troublemakers in every possible way and to record what they did on video.

      In May 2024 Poddubnaya was sentenced to 11 months of corrective labor. Later the Seventh Cassation Court of General Jurisdiction overturned the verdict.
