The absence of a school in a Dagestani village has led to a criminal case.

In Dagestan, a criminal case is being investigated regarding the violation of the rights of minors from the village of Gyukhryag in the Tabasaransky district to receive education in proper conditions.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", in September 2025, residents of the village of Gyukhryag complained about the situation with the local school. The school building has been declared emergency, and students are forced to study in rented buildings that lack basic amenities.

The investigative authorities of Dagestan have begun an investigation into the violation of minors' rights to receive education, reports today RIA "Dagestan".

According to investigators, the reason for the investigation was a report by a federal TV channel about the village of Gyukhryag. The report states that after the closure of the emergency school building in 2019, the construction of a new institution has been repeatedly postponed. As a result, children are forced to study in unsuitable premises - a private house and the building of the local administration.

Currently, investigative actions are being conducted to establish all the circumstances of the incident, the agency clarified.

It should be noted that at the end of August, the acting head of Dagestan, Fyodor Shchukin, reported that all conditions for receiving education, including in schools, have been created in the republic. Residents of Dagestan, commenting on his words on social media, complained about the lack of textbooks in some schools and the collection of money from parents.

"Caucasian Knot" also reported that parents of schoolchildren in Dagestan have repeatedly complained about problems with schools. For example, in September 2025, the head of the Investigative Committee, Bastrykin, became interested in a flooded school in the Dagestani village of Rukel in the Derbent district. Earlier, residents of several districts of the republic demanded to build new school buildings or repair dilapidated structures where their children are forced to study. Relevant appeals were recorded by residents of the villages of Shinaza in the Rutul district and Sovetskoye in the Babayurt district. The authorities of the Khasavyurt district reported on the capital repairs of a school in the village of Oktyabrskoye after residents' complaints.

On August 29, 2024, social media users complained about the condition of school No. 18 in Makhachkala and the lack of textbooks, after which the school principal announced its full readiness for the academic year.
