Parents of children who were tortured by speech therapists: “We spent last money for treatment, and our children were crippled”

video frames, which are captured by the mockery of employees of the Center for Logopedic and Psychological Rehabilitation “Mehnur” over children caused a violent reaction of public opinion. So violent that it took the law enforcement agencies to start the detentions of the “heroines” of these video frames and start a criminal case.

The following points give the special severity of this story: a) not just children, but children who need rehabilitation; b) respectively, the specificity of the profile of this institution; c) a factor in confidence by parents to this institution who decided to transfer their children to him; d) we must assume that the “services” of this center are not at all free.

The commission includes representatives of the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Prosecutor General, the State Committee on Family, Women and Children, Public Organizations and other state structures.

The woman said that 4-year-old Javid Dzhebrailov has problems with hearing and speech, and for two months he was treated in this center. The woman learned about what happened by watching the relevant video frames.

“cameras are installed in all premises of the center. But the incident occurred in the corridor where there were no cameras. The video was recorded 10 days ago by one of the employees of the center. If he did not, we would still not have guessed, What is happening to our child, ”says the mother shocked by what had happened.

According to Gasimova, although her son could not speak, but about a month ago he tried to explain with gestures that he was beaten. Parents turned to the psychologist of the center, but she said that everything that was happening is recorded on the camera and parents can watch everything. The specialist suggested that the child could get injuries during games with peers, or deceiving his parents, so as not to go to the center.

“And now it turns out that a child was beaten by a woman working in the reception room. I felt that the child became very fearful after she began to attend this institution. You just imagine, the child went to this center to learn to speak, and to him They said that if he was picking up, he would be punished. “

The woman also stated that she lives in Ujar, was forced to spend the last money on rental housing in Baku so that the son could receive the necessary treatment.

A young named Osman was also beaten with Javid. Both children were examined. Gasimova says that her son now needs a psychologist, since he received a moral injury. And it requires the money that I paid to the center, as well as compensation for moral damage.
