A masked stalker who threatened to shoot a Moscow woman in the legs has been charged with theft.
The conflict began when Anna broke up with her ex-partner Ruslan M. The man refused to accept the breakup and began systematic harassment: he watched over the woman at home, attacked her in the elevator, and then moved on to nightly sabotage.
The victim then set up a camera on the staircase, but the stalker began arriving in a mask and hood, breaking mailboxes and placing bullets and two nails under the door. Ruslan also intentionally dropped and stole the video cameras that Anna had installed. She then wrote a message to the police, but previously there was not enough evidence to open a criminal case.
It turned out that this was not the stalker's first case: about six years ago he chased and beat his ex-girlfriend, a policewoman, in the same way.
The press service of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the city of Moscow reported that they opened a criminal case under the theft article, which made it possible to move the case forward and launch full operational search activities.
