In Sochi, the police will check reports that investigator Maria Klochkova was raped by a colleague before committing suicide. This was reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Krasnodar Territory.
In the “Police Ombudsman” public page on VKontakte, Anna Klochkova, who introduced herself as the sister of the deceased girl, said that Maria was raped by the detective. According to her, the victim did not write a statement because she did not want anyone to know about this story. The girl perceived the incident as a shame for the family.
“Her boss Khvostov was aware of this situation and promised to help us transfer her home to another city. She was just a child at heart. She was crippled and driven to suicide,” said Anna Klochkova.
Employees of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs have been sent to Sochi to help conduct an investigation into the suicide of the investigator. Based on its results, the guilty officials will be held accountable, according to the website of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Krasnodar Territory.

According to eyewitnesses, at first Klochkova was often seen in the company of other investigators, but over time she began to appear alone and behaved withdrawn.
