We point out the evident errors in statistical analysis of the data, performed by Klapdor-Kleingrothaus et al in recently published paper to establish a limit on the stability of electron with respect to the decay into $��+��$. We performed the reestimation of the sensitivity of the experimental setups to the 256 keV gamma emitted in the hypothetical electron decay, and show that in [1] the limits on the electron stability and charge nonconservation parameter $��_{e����}^{2}$ are overestimated by at least a factor of 5.
