Patients to be fired in psychiatric clinics
Russian Duma has adopted a draft on permitting psychiatric clinic staff to carry arms. This has been reported by nr2.ru.
The arms may be used to protect from patients’ attacks and for protecting people in the territory of the clinic.
According to Russian Ministry of Justice, the draft has been worked out in accordance with Russian President’s commission.
The mission of the draft is to ensure security of the people in the territory of the clinic.
Note that the abovementioned clinics are also foreseen for the patients who undergo obligatory treatment by court’s decision.
