In Irkutsk, narcologists, police and guardianship officials raided student dormitories in different parts of the city, and some rooms were even searched with dog handlers. About ten students were sent for medical examination, and three of them, including two minors, tested positive for drugs. After further checks, they and their parents face fines, registration and monthly tests for a year.

Narcologists from the Irkutsk Regional Psychoneurological Dispensary and district police officers, together with representatives of the guardianship and trusteeship authorities, inspected Irkutsk dormitories in different parts of the city.
Some rooms were inspected with the help of canine handlers. During the inspection, about ten students were sent for medical examination. In three young men, tests showed the presence of drugs in the body. Two of them turned out to be minors.
After additional verification of the test results, the students and their parents will be fined, and the young men will be placed under supervision. Also, for a year, every month they will be required to take tests and be monitored by narcologists.
The press service of the Federal Drug Control Service of Russia for the Irkutsk Region promised that such raids on student dormitories would be carried out continuously throughout the academic year. With such measures, it may be possible to reduce the scale and stop the spread of drug addiction among young people.
