The chairman of the Alliance of Teachers trade union, Daniil Ken, was fired from St. Petersburg Lyceum No. 344, where he had worked for more than eight years. He talks about this on his Facebook page.
reported that the employment contract was terminated at the initiative of the employer due to the commission of an “immoral act incompatible with the continuation of this work” (clause 8, part 1, article 81 of the Labor Code). The reason was two cases that were filed against Ken: under the article on beatings (Article 6.1.1 of the Administrative Code), the verdict on which did not enter into legal force, and the status of a suspect in the case of contempt of court (Part 2 of Article 297 of the Criminal Code) .
Ken calls the dismissal illegal and political, and the battery case is fake. “For 8 years, I heard many times from the director that work at school and politics, which I was always involved in outside the school, were a bad combination, and that I needed to choose one. (By the way, this argument did not prevent the director from running for municipal elections from United Russia in 2019, without resigning from the school),” he noted.
