In Moscow, a police officer suspected of raping a girl with a mop handle transported her to a hospital personally, according to the press service of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the capital. Law enforcement agencies verified the officer’s claim that illegal acts were perpetrated against his nephew. Investigators identified a member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs from the North-West Administrative District of the Moscow Main Directorate as being involved in the crime, and it was confirmed that the suspect himself escorted the victim to medical care. The decision was made to terminate his service within the internal affairs organs. He will face the punishment prescribed by law, and his superiors will be subjected to disciplinary measures. Both suspects were detained.
Preliminary information recalls that on December 14, 2022, a 20-year-old woman, a 21-year-old police sergeant, and her 20-year-old friend gathered for a meal. An incident of alcohol intoxication escalated into a dispute among the participants. Investigators allege that the police officer involved used a mop handle in the assault, and rape occurred, with the two companions physically assaulting the victim afterwards. The trio allegedly forced the victim to endure further mistreatment, including the use of a steam device.
The injured party was taken to a hospital where medical staff diagnosed ruptures to the spleen and genitals. Medical teams described the patient’s condition as serious and monitored closely.
Earlier reports referenced a separate case in which a man in the United States allegedly abducted a pregnant woman and subjected her to extended sexual violence over several weeks. This prior incident is not connected to the Moscow case and is included solely for comparative context. [Citation: Official statements from the Moscow Main Directorate Press Service]
