A resident of the Voronezh region was detained after officials say her grandmother was killed by her husband, a man who had previously shared drinks with the household. This update was announced by the press service of the Kashirsky District Court on the day it was reported.
The incident reportedly unfolded in May when a Kashirsky district resident visited his grandmother in the Novousmansky district. On a day that began with a social gathering, the accused hosted a meal that included the husband of her elderly relative. Witnesses describe that the two men first consumed alcohol together and exchanged verbal tensions. The situation then escalated, and the accused allegedly struck her drinking companion with her hands and, at one point, used a knife to inflict multiple blows to the man’s legs.
Moments later, the victim succumbed to his injuries at the scene, prompting authorities to begin a formal investigation into the events that led to the fatal outcome.
Investigators opened a criminal case against the Russian woman for deliberate grievous bodily harm, which endangered the victim’s life and ultimately resulted in his death. The case proceeds under part 4 of article 111 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, with authorities pursuing charges in connection with the fatal consequences of the injuries sustained during the confrontation. The press office of the Kashirsky District Court confirmed these developments and provided updates as the inquiry progressed.
In a related local note, reports from the day prior described an incident in Penza involving a 17-year-old boy who intervened in a dispute, reportedly striking the attacker of his friend’s mother at the request of the victim. This separate event is referenced here to illustrate the broader spectrum of conflicts and responses that have appeared in regional reporting during the same time frame.
