According to the Prosecutor General's Office, a total of 29 tourists from Russia, 14 from Estonia, and four from the Czech Republic were hospitalized.
It is noted that the experts took samples of food and drinks from the hotel kitchen and from the refrigerators to prepare a report with the test results.
Also interviewed were the doctors watching the hospitalized, the poisoned tourists themselves, as well as those hotel guests who did not poison themselves, although they ate the same dinner.
The prosecutor's office said that “the chef interviewed by the Prosecutor General's Office, the assistant director of the hotel for food and drinks responsible for the quality of the hotel, deny the accusations against them, as a result of which the GP detained them and instructed the police to conduct a check.”
It is also reported that by the decision of the Ministry of Tourism, the hotel was closed due to the presence of a threat to the health of guests, as well as due to non-compliance with measures to combat the coronavirus.
Earlier it became known that Rospotrebnadzor is ready to legally help Russian tourists poisoned in a hotel in the Egyptian city of Hurghada.
