Copies of appeals addressed to the Minister of Health and the head of the State Duma Committee on Health are at the disposal of RT.

As Volynets explained, in Russia, regular monitoring is mandatory only for those patients who previously behaved aggressively.

At the same time, she noted, there are a number of diseases that, in development, can be potentially dangerous for others.

The Children's Ombudsman stressed that such patients need to be monitored in order to preserve the life and health of citizens.

Therefore, in her opinion, it is necessary to amend the law "On psychiatric care and guarantees of the rights of citizens in its provision."

It is important to expand its action by approving a list of diseases potentially dangerous to others, in the presence of which control over such people will be introduced, the interlocutor of RT explained. 

Thus, observation will be carried out not only for patients with already established aggressive behavior, but also for people with diseases in which such behavior is possible.

“After the above changes are made to the law, in the event that a patient fails to appear at the next control appointment scheduled by the attending physician, he will be searched and forcibly brought to a medical institution - just as it is now established for those mentally ill whose social danger has already been established,” — stated in the text of the appeal.

Earlier, Russian human rights commissioner Tatyana Moskalkova said that the alleged killer of three people in a kindergarten in the Ulyanovsk region is registered as mentally ill.

On April 26, an armed man broke into a kindergarten near Ulyanovsk.

According to the source, two children and a teacher were shot dead.

The attacker committed suicide.
