Law enforcement is checking UrGAU for fictitious employment.

      Law enforcement officials have already conducted searches twice at the Ural State Agrarian University (UrGAU). The interest of the operatives is connected to the Institute of Economics, Finance, and Management and its director Olga Ruschitskaya. According to one version, one of her family members may have been fictitiously employed at the university, while another received an increased scholarship.

      According to him, Ruschitskaya's daughter allegedly held the position of associate professor at the university for 10 years, although she lives in Moscow. During this time, she worked in three departments headed by her mother.

      — Remotely, she did not teach; that does not exist at the university. The question is, how did a lecturer from Moscow work for 10 years in Yekaterinburg? According to unofficial information, someone else was marking grades in the credit-examination records for her. Essentially, there could have been a service forgery, — a source told Ura.Ru.

      The grandson of Ruschitskaya is also a student at the same university, who received an increased scholarship for his contribution to scientific activity. According to insider information, the guy was a co-author of scientific works with his grandmother and other teachers subordinate to her.

      At the same time, in February, law enforcement officials had already come to the university. At that time, rector Olga Lortets left her position. The university reported that she resigned "due to health reasons and age."
