About 70 employees of a private security firm broke into the Odessa sanatorium "Lermontovskiy" and seized it. This was reported by the local newspaper "Dumskaya".

It is noted that these people, armed with crowbars and armature, have seized the administrative building and do not allow staff to work.

As explained by the lawyer Ilya Khaldai, who defends the interests of the current administration of Lermontovsky, the invaders are led by a representative of a state-owned enterprise who claims that they are acting legally. This is due to the fact that now the sanatorium is being contested by the Ministry of Justice and "Ukrprofzdravnitsa".

"To date, a decision has come into force that canceled the transfer of" health resort "to the Ministry of Justice. Not being able to enter legally, the state enterprise commits a crime with the connivance of the police. The police are dragging out time, "says the lawyer.

Director of the sanatorium Dmitry Antipov noted that now the work of the building is completely paralyzed, because it was cut off from electricity. It is known that 150 people are currently being treated and rehabilitated in the sanatorium.

"We now have people after strokes, heart attacks, employees can not get to work. Unfortunately, lawlessness continues, "he stressed..

After nine hours, law enforcers arrived at the scene of events, as well as supporters of Ukrprofzdravnitsa near the sanatorium,.
