A man in Astrakhan found himself subject to a criminal case after an assault on his partner inside a room of a hostel that serves elderly and disabled residents on Bezhonova Street. The couple lived together in this shared space, and authorities say the man became jealous of another guest, a tension that quickly escalated the situation between them.
Footage from the scene shows the suspect entering the room with a knife and sitting opposite his girlfriend. The argument intensified, and during the confrontation he struck the victim in the chest with the knife. Despite the swift response of medical teams, she could not be saved. The incident left a chilling impression on those nearby and prompted investigators to begin sorting out the sequence of events.
A criminal case was opened against the suspect, and investigators stated that all details surrounding the incident are being clarified as the investigation continues.
Earlier, in the Altai Territory, another serious assault occurred when a man attacked a drinking companion with a screwdriver, driven by jealousy toward the person he shared his living space with. The blow struck near the neck, and the victim did not survive. This case underscored how jealousy can escalate into deadly violence and prompted a rapid police response and inquiry.
In the Tambov region, a separate incident involved a man assaulted his neighbor with a knife, motivated by jealousy. The aggression halted any sense of safety in the neighborhood and led to a formal inquiry by law enforcement authorities.
These episodes collectively demonstrate how intense personal emotions can trigger violent outcomes, with investigators across regions working to determine every aspect of the cases and hold those responsible to account. The ongoing inquiries emphasize the importance of timely reporting, scene preservation, and thorough evidence gathering as authorities seek to understand motives and prevent further harm in similar settings.
