The court found the notary's assistant guilty in the "house of death" case in Shcherbakovo, but released her from punishment.

      The Vakhitovsky District Court of Kazan found notary assistant Yulia Zaitseva guilty. However, she was released from punishment. This was reported by a correspondent from "BUSINESS Online". Zaitseva is the assistant to notary Alsu Georgiadi-Avdienko. She became a figure in a criminal case regarding the "house of death" in Shcherbakovo in September 2024. "To find Zaitseva guilty," ruled Judge Artem Mityayev. "To impose a penalty in the form of a fine of 190,000 rubles to the state. To release from the imposed penalty due to the expiration of the statute of limitations." She is accused under part 1 of article 202 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Abuse of authority by private notaries"). Zaitseva does not admit her guilt, and the defense intends to appeal the decision and seek full acquittal. Earlier, the prosecutor requested a 2-year prison sentence in a settlement colony for her. The prosecution believes that in the summer of 2023, Zaitseva issued a general power of attorney to her niece, 76-year-old Alevtina Kanashova — Irina Belozerova. With the help of the document, Belozerova was able to transfer all of the pensioner's property: two apartments in a building on Dostoevsky Street, a cottage, and a share in the authorized capital of LLC "Frant," which has commercial premises near the Moscow market. After that, the niece placed Kanashova in a private nursing home in Shcherbakovo, where the pensioner died. The investigation estimated Kanashova's property at 90 million rubles. The criminal case also involves Belozerova and the owner of the nursing home in Shcherbakovo, Chulpan Miftakhova; additionally, the case features psychiatrist Alexander Davydov, who issued a certificate regarding Kanashova's condition without an actual examination.

      Recall that in the Kazan village of Shcherbakovo, a secret nursing home was discovered in early September, where pensioners lived in unsanitary conditions. At that time, in addition to 22 residents, a corpse was found. According to preliminary data, about 20 people died there over the course of a year.
