"Sanity. Elementary "

The Minister of the Rostov Region insists: the collapsed stands and did not have to be attached. 36 people were injured, mostly children, one person died

In Rostov-on-Don, on the rowing channel “Don” on May 30, due to bad weather, the rostrum turned over during a children's football match. The woman died and suffered, according to Governor Vasily Golubev, 36 people. Collective portable stands with a canopy were not fixed. The Investigative Committee started two criminal cases in connection with the emergency.

On the first of June, the region of the region brought a criminal case under an article on negligence against officials of the sports school No. 5, on the territory of which the tragedy occurred. At the end of May, the city operated in high readiness, on May 30 was no exception-residents of the city received from the Ministry of Emergencies SMS provisions with a warning that strong rains, rainfall in combination with a thunderstorm, hail and strengthening the wind were expected. However, the children's match, planned between the teams of Bataisk and Rostov, was not canceled.

In an interview with the local news portal 161.ru, the Minister of Sports of the Rostov Region Samvel Arakelyan said that “the weather was normal, nothing portended,” and the question of preventing the Ministry of Emergencies replied that such messages were constantly coming. However, it is worth noting that on the days before that they were justified - Rostov covered strong showers. The collar of the tribune, which entailed the death of the mother of one of the participants in the tournament, called the minister an accident, because the tribune does not imply a fastening, according to him.

The employee of the Sales Department of Arena Sport, which is engaged in the production of stands, shared that he first hears that the stands with a canopy were not attached, since they have a very large sailing:

- Our company of stands with a canopy must attach to the base, and it must be concrete.

The presence of sailing in this type of sports structures was also confirmed in the Russian Association of Sports Figures. Natalya Kochetova, Director of the Information and Association Information and Association, says that the mobility of the stands is not an argument for the absence of fastening:

- The stands can be of a most diverse nature. The manufacturer and installer must ensure their safe installation and placement. During operation, they must be rigidly fixed so that they cannot be shifted, because they are dangerous, and when you need to move, then release it. After all, there are mobile buildings, should they also wear them by the wind? They are attached. Mobile structures should not fly. Sunitter is elementary, I'm not talking about GOST.

GOST "Objects of sports. Safety requirements during sports and physical education measures ”(p 55529-2013) prescribes the necessary assessment of safety requirements that are carried out by research. One of the provisions of paragraph 4.3 prescribes a check “The state of the configuration and fastening of the protective structures of the sports object (if there are such structures)”. That is, Kochetov summarizes, they must be safe. She also adds:

- In the design of any object, there are general state standards that should be ensured in terms of security.

On May 31, the Investigative Committee of the region initiated the case under Article 238 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - the performance of work and the provision of services that do not meet security requirements that entail the death of a person through negligence. At the moment, 8 children and 7 adults remain in the hospital. By decision of the brigade of doctors from the capital, who arrived in the evening of May 31, one child in serious condition was transported to Moscow.

A frivolous attitude to the elements over the past month in bad weather has passed the lives of two people in Rostov. On April 28, an 80-year-old English teacher drowned in a scored collector, then the SK also started a case under an article on negligence.
