In Novosibirsk, a woman faces up to 15 years for fatally beating her tyrannical husband with a skewer.
According to 34-year-old Svetlana, her 48-year-old husband regularly got drunk and beat her badly. That evening he broke down the door, attacked his wife again and threatened to kill her.
The woman grabbed a skewer from the table and hit her husband on the back. Then she called an ambulance and the police herself. A week and a half later, the man died in the hospital.
Svetlana will be tried for intentionally causing grievous bodily harm resulting in death. The lawyer insists on self-defense and asks to reclassify the case.
