Seven-year-old girl was allegedly kidnapped from a playground by a lady so that her boyfriend could rape her.
On suspicion of abducting the nameless child to present to Andrey Komaritsky, 46, Veronika Khomchuk, 28, was detained.
In an effort to kill her, the victim was allegedly tossed from a second-story window in Kurilsk, a rural Russian city located north of Japan.
The seven-year-old, who was helicoptered to Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, the regional capital of Sakhalin, in a severe condition, is battling for her life there.
Rape and attempted homicide are the charges against Komaritsky.
Local media said that he had already done time in prison for a different incident.
“When it was over, the animal of the man threw the child out of the window.”
It added that a neighbour said Komaritsky “waved and smiled” as he was taken away by police with bloodied wrists.
The neighbour added that the incident had horrified locals in Kurilsk, a town of 1,000 people where “everyone knows each other”.
It follows the abduction, rape, and murder of an eight-year-old child in the same area in 2020.
Igor Dvornikov and Kristina Dvornikov, a married couple, picked up Vika Teplyakova after she ran away from her house following a fight. They drove her to a lonely woodland where she was raped and strangled with a plastic bag.
In comparison to Kristina, Dvornikov received a life sentence in prison.
After a fight with her parents, Vika was seen on surveillance camera walking by herself on Sakhalin Island in a T-shirt and blue shorts. She was headed to see friends.
Vika was gone for three days before Dvornikova told authorities that she and her husband had given the young girl a ride, despite the efforts of more than 500 volunteers.
Before the trial, Ulyana Teplyakova, 32, the mother of Vika, had expressed her hope that “these people will soon end up in hell.”
They deserved a “terrible and painful” punishment, she said.
Her daughter was “kind and friendly, obedient, a regular child, all her friends loved her”.
Her mum added: “She loved football, playing it with boys and girls. She loved drawing, singing, and making videos. She was a very artistic girl.”
