A stalker brutally stabbed his ex-lover to death outside a women's aid center in St. Petersburg. After the massacre, the man disappeared, but half an hour later he called the police and confessed to the murder.
According to SHOT, the killer attacked a woman at the entrance to the center. He frantically stabbed her several times in the head and neck area with a knife. The injured woman fell to the ground, and the follower was startled by a woman who came out of the center. The victim was hospitalized, but she died on the way to the hospital. After the attack, the man left the scene of the crime and then turned himself in to the police. He stated that he beat and stabbed his ex-partner. The suspect was detained and transferred to the department. Initially, the main motive for the crime was jealousy.
In the past, he was involved in the case of preparing an attack on the Kazan Cathedral in St. Petersburg. The suspect knew the organizer of the failed explosion, Yevgeny Efimov, who told him about plans to make explosives. He allegedly tried to dissuade his friend, but did not inform the police. In 2018, he was found guilty of not reporting a crime and fined 70 thousand rubles.
