Moscow -- Prosecutors said Thursday they are investigating accusations that workers at a central Russian hospital taped infants' mouths shut to keep them from crying.
In a second incident, prosecutors in the Far Eastern city of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk said they have opened a criminal investigation at a kindergarten where an employee gave unauthorized injections to children to help them sleep.
The alleged mouth-taping at Hospital No. 15 in the Ural Mountains city of Yekaterinburg, about 900 miles east of Moscow, has received wide coverage in the Russian media. According to some news accounts, all or some of the babies were orphans.
A statement posted on the prosecutor general's Web site said investigators found that hospital workers were accused of using tape or adhesive bandages to shut the mouths of infants on several occasions to quiet them.
Regional prosecutors were conducting a criminal investigation into whether hospital workers could be charged with dereliction of duty or child abuse, the statement said.
Earlier this week, Russian TV broadcast video images reportedly taken with a cell phone that showed a crib with a sleeping baby who appeared to have a pacifier taped to its mouth.
The Interfax news agency on Tuesday reported that Yekaterinburg city health officials had reprimanded the hospital's chief doctor and its chief nurse.
Russia's health and welfare institutions -- including hospitals and orphanages -- fell into disrepair after the Soviet collapse as government money dried up.
In Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, on the Pacific island of Sakhalin, regional prosecutor Tatyana Kutuzova said that investigators have opened a criminal investigation into whether a worker injected children to calm them down or to help them sleep. Lyubov Kuritsina, a regional education official, said the worker was fired.
