A doctor guilty of the death of a top manager of a defense holding company has been sentenced

On November 27, Presnensky District Court of Moscow passed a sentence on a doctor guilty of the death of Dmitry Konoplev, deputy head of the defense holding High-Precision Complexes. Inna Mozebakh, an employee of the XeoSpa medical clinic, received two years in a penal colony with a suspended sentence until her minor son turns 14.

It turned out that it was Mozebakh who conducted a session of xenotherapy, during which 46-year-old Konoplev died. The doctor pleaded guilty under Article 238 of the Criminal Code ("Provision of services that do not meet safety requirements") and made a deal with the investigation, testifying against the management of the clinic. The case against the management and owners of the clinic is still pending.

The court agreed with the prosecution, which asked to sentence the woman to two years' imprisonment in a general regime colony, taking into account mitigating circumstances, including the presence of a minor child. Inna Mozebakh will start serving her sentence in four years, when her son will be 14 years old.

The injured party is satisfied with the court's decision, Dmitry Sokolov, the representative of Dmitry Konoplev's mother, told Izvestia. Earlier, she refused the civil claim of 10 million rubles. According to Nelly Konopleva, she herself is a dentist by profession and considers the actions of the staff and management of the clinic "a disgrace to the profession," but is not ready to measure her loss in money.
