Local health campaigner Artem Golubev, 40, said: ‘It is clear that while she was taking these photographs she was not looking after her patients."

He added: ‘She shows a callous disregard for the welfare of her patients, some of whom died after those pictures were taken.

‘I would not be surprised if their families sue both her and the emergency services."

A spokesman for the city"s emergency services said: ‘As soon as we were alerted to these images online we suspended the paramedic in question. After an investigation was carried out, the employee was fired."

Kulikova has made no comment following the incident.
