According to the first deputy minister of education Dmitry Glushko, the heads of some schools in Krasnoyarsk concealed information about the first cases of poisoning of children from the city administration and the regional education ministry.

According to the official, this situation borders on "a crime against children".

"The root of the problem is the concealment of information by the school principal", - Interfax quotes the words Dmitry Glushko. "The school principal's functionality is not key in terms of catering, but nevertheless, the position of the school principal is surprising 144: Natalya Alekseyevna Alekseyeva exactly a week ago at the same operational headquarters, she informed us that the existing problems with the contractor have been eliminated, the contractor is great and there are no problems. Although at that moment she already had the first signals about the poisoning of children. In a day, there were already 24 children who applied to medical institutions".

In total, according to the Deputy Minister of Education and according to the Krasnoyarsk administration, the number of schoolchildren who applied for help in the city increased to 131, they poisoned themselves with salads. 59 schoolchildren were hospitalized with signs of yersiniosis infection.

Dmitry Glushko said that the reason for the poisoning was the desynchronization of the actions of the executive authorities and all responsible persons. For example, when a large number of children with poisoning were admitted to medical institutions, the Ministry of Education of the Krasnoyarsk Territory was not informed about this in time. The deputy minister also suggested that the regional Ministry of Agriculture has lost control over the supplier of agricultural products, and the Krasnoyarsk mayor's office does not exercise technological control over the supply of products to school canteens, in connection with which "personnel decisions have already been made and the relevant persons have been dismissed".

Violations at the vegetable supplier were indeed identified even before the poisoning of Krasnoyarsk schoolchildren , which occurred in February. During an unscheduled inspection in December-January, Rospotrebnadzor revealed violations of sanitary standards at the company supplying products for salads.

The police and the Investigative Committee have initiated criminal cases on violation of sanitary standards and the provision of services that do not meet the requirements of the safety of life and health of consumers. Under this criminal article, the offender faces a fine of up to 700 thousand rubles or up to two years in prison . The Prosecutor's Office of the Krasnoyarsk Territory also began checking the fact of the poisoning. The activities of the supplier and manufacturer of vegetables are temporarily suspended. The head of Krasnoyarsk said that upon the incident, he fired the deputy head of the city's main education department and the head of the municipal "Nutrition Center".
