"It's just a miracle"
Alevtina Khorinyak doctor told Open Russia about her case
The court in Krasnoyarsk on October 21 acquitted Alevtina Khorinyak, who in 2011 wrote out an painkillers of a man who died from cancer. The cancer patient was not attached to the clinic where the Khorinyak worked, the doctor was accused of fake documents and the illegal turnover of potent substances.
The Khorinyak case was considered for the second time - initially the woman was found guilty and sentenced to a fine, but she decided to achieve justice. As a result, the verdict was canceled and sent for a new investigation. The trial of the Krasnoyarsk doctor attracted wide attention to the problem of painkillers for patients with cancer, which cannot receive drugs that facilitate their suffering, due to FSKN prohibitions.
Alevtina Khorinyak says that she did not fully believe in an acquittal, and thanks everyone who supported her. According to the doctor, its situation is not uncommon. In recent years, drug police often began to accuse the doctors of the spread of drugs, although in reality they only wanted to alleviate the suffering of their patients.
When the judge read the verdict today, I again heard the same phrases there as the prosecutor, and I already had the thought: “Well, that's all, I have to start all over again.” As before the concrete wall I got up again.
