As in the case of the Emza, Kotogarov’s career in the penitentiary system leaned the illegal dismissal of the FSIN employee. In 2024, an employee of the pre-trial detention center-1 of Yaroslavl decided to withdraw a dismissal report, but the head of the institution refused to sign the relevant document in the absence of legal grounds. A few days later, the employee repeatedly wrote a report on the review of the dismissal report, but Kotogarov refused to sign it. As a result, an order was issued to terminate the contract and dismissal of the employee from the service in the penal system.
The employee challenged illegal dismissal in court. When considering a civil lawsuit in the court of first instance of Kotogarov during an interrogation as a witness, being warned by the court of criminal liability under Art. 307 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, gave the court deliberately false testimonies that he allegedly did not know about the plaintiff’s submission of two reports on the review of the dismissal report. In fact, which was confirmed by other evidence, both reports lay in the office of the pre -trial detention center with the resolution of the chief of the isolator to refuse to accept them at the time of the dismissal order.
The court of first instance refused the claims on the basis of Kotogarov’s evidence, but the Yaroslavl Regional Court abolished the decision this year and made a new one: to restore the illegally dismissed employee of the SIZO-1 in their previous rank and position, to recover monetary allowance from the insulator in favor of the forced absenteeism and compensation for non-pecuniary damage. The fact of Kotogarov’s awareness of the plaintiff received at the time the dismissal order was submitted in the appeal ruling of the court.
It is noteworthy that Kotogarov on the basis of Part 7 of Art. 76 FZ-197 “On the Service in the Criminal Executive System” is disciplinary and liability as the head of the institution, who, in violation of the law, the decision to dismiss an employee from service to the penal correction system. After the payment of the amounts awarded by the court, the UFK officer in the Yaroslavl region, the regression, the regression to the SIZO-1 on reimbursement of payments made in the service. An official check was initiated on this fact. The term of its implementation was determined until June 15, but there is no need to count on the objectivity of the results, since Kotogarov instructed his immediate deputies.
In April, the head of the pre -trial detention center submitted an application to the Investigative Department for the Frunze district of the Yaroslavl of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of the SKR in the Yaroslavl Region with a request to initiate a criminal case on abuse of authority (part 1 of article 285 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) and giving obviously false testimonies (part 1 of article 307 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). The case has not yet been opened, upon request for initiating the case and complaints about the inaction of officials in accordance with Art. 124 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation, the verification is not properly carried out. By the way, the head of the investigative department in the Frunze district of Yaroslavl Ruslan Mamoyan served in the FSIN and is well acquainted with which for operational work.
