The Nizhny Novgorod Prosecutor's Office is a territorial body of the prosecution service that supervises compliance with the law within the city. It is part of the prosecution system of Nizhny Novgorod Region. The office is headed by city prosecutor Igor Mokichev.[1]

Supervision of the performance of municipal contracts

In September 2026, the Prosecutor's Office monitored the progress of major renovation work at educational institutions under the national project "Youth and Children." On 24 September 2026, prosecutor Igor Mokichev personally visited the construction site of School No. 123 on Gvozdilnaya Street in Leninsky District, inspected the facility, and heard reports from representatives of the client — the municipal institution "GlavUKS" — and the contractor.[2][3] Following the inspection, the management of the contracting company OOO "Mostoproektstroy" was issued a warning against violating the terms of the municipal contract; compliance with the project's completion deadline — 1 December 2026 — and the quality of the work have been placed under the office's oversight.[1][4]

The contract for the renovation of School No. 123 went through several stages. Initially, in 2025, an agreement was concluded with the Cheboksary-based OOO "Master Krovli" for 132.5 million rubles, with completion due in October 2026; however, in February 2026 the contract was terminated by mutual agreement, as the contractor had managed to complete only 5.6 million rubles' worth of work. In March 2026, the municipal institution GlavUKS concluded a new agreement with the Nizhny Novgorod-based OOO "Mostoproektstroy" for 136.6 million rubles, setting the final completion deadline at 1 December 2026.[1][3] Because the renovation is still ongoing, the school did not open on 1 September 2026.[2]
