Nanny says 鈥榓ttack was revenge over Syria鈥
Print Edition
A NANNY accused of decapitating a 4-year old girl and brandishing her head outside a Moscow subway station said during an apparent interrogation captured on video that the killing was an act of revenge against President Vladimir Putin for Russian airstrikes in Syria.
Asked about the video, which was released yesterday, Putin’s spokesman said it is difficult to judge the testimony of a woman he called “clearly deranged.”
Gulchekhra Bobokulova, 38, was detained in Moscow on Monday after the child in her care was killed. Video footage posted online yesterday appeared to show police interrogating her. It was not clear where the video originated.
In the video, she says the killing of the child was revenge. Asked who it was revenge against, she says “the one who has spilled the blood.” Asked who that was, she replies: “Who spilled it? Putin has been dropping bombs.”
Russia has been carrying out airstrikes in Syria for five months to support Syrian President Bashar Assad’s offensive there.
The Investigative Committee, Russia’s top investigative agency, would not confirm or deny the authenticity of the video, but spokesman Vladimir Markin warned in a statement that Bobokulova’s words should be treated with caution. “The motive for a crime committed by a person who was diagnosed with schizophrenia often does not coincide with the explanations that they give later,” he said.
