In Kharkiv<\/strong> in February<\/strong> two underage girls, recruited by Russian special services, fatally poisoned a serviceman of the National Guard of Ukraine; this was reported by the head of the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office Yurii Papusha in an interview with Ukrinform<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, we are already seeing that children are being involved in the commission of particularly serious crimes. A minor girl via Telegram received from a Russian handler an offer for 5000<\/strong> dollars to kill a National Guard serviceman. She involved her friend in committing the crime,\u201d \u2014 said the head of the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office Yurii Papusha.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

According to the investigation, the teenagers met the serviceman and in February<\/strong> invited him to a hotel, where they carried out the plan following the handler’s instructions.<\/p>\n

The girls collected the methadone via a parcel locker and, following the client’s instructions, mixed the substance into the vodka that they gave to the man.<\/p>\n

The Russian handler monitored the events via video link and ordered that the serviceman be strangled; however, experts determined that by that time the victim had already died from poisoning.<\/p>\n

One of the perpetrators put a plastic bag over the deceased’s head, covered his face with a pillow and held it down, streaming this by video as confirmation of completing the task.<\/p>\n

After the killing the underage girls disposed of the packaging from the narcotic substance and left the crime scene.<\/p>\n

Law enforcement quickly identified both participants in the crime; they are now in custody and admit to the killing.<\/p>\n
