Law enforcement authorities in Moscow have arrested an employee at a rehabilitation center following serious allegations of child abuse. According to investigators, the facility had been operating without proper authorization since August, and children were reportedly subjected to beatings and torture. The incident has raised significant concerns about the safety and legal compliance of such facilities in the region.
Officials have not yet released details about the number of children affected or the specific charges against the arrested employee. However, it is understood that the facility was operating under an illegal permit and was found to be in violation of multiple health and safety regulations. The case has prompted calls for an independent review of all similar facilities in the area to ensure the protection of minors.
Human rights organizations have expressed shock at the allegations, emphasizing the need for stricter oversight in the rehabilitation sector. A spokesperson for one such organization stated, “Children in such facilities should be protected, not exploited. This case highlights the urgent need for reform and greater accountability.” The investigation is ongoing, with authorities promising to take all necessary measures to ensure the safety and well-being of those involved.
