Mum Who Put Out a Hit on Her 12-Year-Old Daughter Was Fed up of 'Bad Behaviour'
- Svetlana, a 46-year-old mother from Russia’s Chelyabinsk region, was arrested on May 23, 2025, after allegedly paying a 36-year-old acquaintance named Andrey to kill her 12-year-old daughter by throwing her into a nearby river.
- Svetlana allegedly offered Andrey £930 to kill her daughter, explaining that she was fed up with the girl's troublesome conduct and their frequent disagreements.
- The girl overheard the conversation from behind a door and was sent out with Andrey from their home in the Izmailovsky settlement, but the man did not carry out the killing and later went to the police.
- Svetlana is facing a possible 15-year prison sentence if found guilty of encouraging the killing of her underage daughter, while the child and two younger siblings, aged 17 and 6, have been placed into protective care.
- This case highlights serious familial conflict as the mother allegedly sought a contract killing due to behavioural issues, resulting in legal action and the removal of the children from her care.
