Having agreed with the position of the state prosecutor of the prosecutor’s office of the city of Sevastopol, the court issued a guilty verdict in a criminal case against the former head of the Sevastopol City Bureau of Forensic Medicine, two orderlies and the head of the department — a forensic doctor of this institution, who is currently suspended from office.
The former head of the institution and the head of the department were found guilty under Part 6 of Art. 290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (receiving a bribe on an especially large scale). The orderlies were convicted under Part 5 of Art. 291 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (giving a bribe by a group of persons by prior conspiracy on an especially large scale). It was established that orderlies paid bribes to the leadership of the State Budgetary Institution of Health Services «SGB SME» for permission to perform post-mortem makeup on the bodies of the deceased for a fee from their relatives.

The investigation was carried out by the Main Investigative Directorate of the Russian Investigative Committee for the Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol.
