A verdict has been handed down in Aksu, Pavlodar region, in a high-profile case concerning the abuse of elderly wards at the Kamkor Social Services Centre.
According to the city prosecutor's office, the defendant's guilt was proven thanks to footage from security cameras that captured shocking acts of violence.
It emerged that the care home worker systematically used physical force on residents and left them outside without warm clothing, putting them at risk of hypothermia.
The court ultimately found the employee guilty and sentenced her to 3 years in prison.
Previously, it was reported that two residents of the care home in Aksu had suffered long-term abuse and violence at the hands of staff. One of the victims is 84 years old.
It was noted that the vulnerable pensioners were regularly beaten, had their arms twisted, and were put outside in winter without clothes.
