In Astrakhan for the bite of a child homeless dog recovered 30 thousand rubles

In Astrakhan, the court ordered the city administration to pay 30 thousand rubles in compensation for moral damage to a minor who suffered from the attack of a homeless dog. The boy was bitten on the leg while walking in the Lenin Park in the village of Cossackia. After the incident, the child needed medical attention and vaccination against rabies.

With a claim in the Leninsky district court appealed the mother of the victim. The woman demanded to recover from the administration of Astrakhan 60 thousand rubles for the physical and moral suffering suffered by her son.

According to the case file, a stray dog attacked a teenager in a park and bit him on his left shin. After the attack, the boy was taken to the Regional Children's Clinical Hospital named after N. N. Selischeva.

Doctors diagnosed the bitten wound, carried out the necessary treatment and prescribed a course of preventive vaccinations against rabies. In addition to physical pain, the incident was a serious psychological shock for the child.

During the consideration of the case, the court examined medical documents confirming the injury. The defendant's representatives did not provide evidence that the attack occurred elsewhere or in other circumstances.

As a result, the demands of the mother were partially satisfied. The court decided to recover from the administration of the municipality “City district city of Astrakhan” at the expense of the city treasury 30 thousand rubles in favor of the minor as compensation for moral damage.

Thus, the award was less than half the amount originally claimed by the mother of the victim. Information on the entry into force of the court decision in the published materials is not given.
