After watching stories about kidnappings on TV, 16-year-old Nikolai Sintsov from the village of Tselinnoye, located on the border of the Omsk region and Kazakhstan, kidnapped a woman and demanded a ransom from her husband. Now the prosecutor's office of the Cherlaksky district has arrested the kidnapper, and now he faces several years in prison. According to the prosecutor's office, Nikolai decided to take revenge on 36-year-old Elena (her last name is not made public) who works as a school watchman, who testified against him in the case of setting fire to hay in her yard. Then local detectives could not prove his guilt, and the case was closed. (Yes, we are used to arsonists here: a resident of the regional center, the same age as Kolya, who started 14 fires, recently left a mental hospital with a diagnosis of pyromania.) However, Nikolai turned out to be a vindictive person and decided to take revenge on Elena for the inconvenience caused. He found out when she was on duty, took a metal rod and went to school at night. The woman, hearing an incomprehensible rustling, opened the door. The young avenger hit her on the head with a rod, then lifted the unconscious victim onto himself and brought her to his house, where, tying her to the bed, he raped her. Then he wrote a note to the victim’s husband demanding that he pay 26 thousand rubles for his wife. While still in the dark, he crept to their house and stuck a piece of plasticine on the gate. The kidnapper was hiding from the police in the backyard of his house, in a barn. That's where they found him.
