In Yegoryevsk near Moscow, police detained a man who stabbed his ex-wife several times with a knife in front of a child, the Moscow departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Investigative Committee report . The detainee is suspected of attempted murder (part 3 of article 30, part 1 of article 105 of the Criminal Code).

On November 24, in the southeast of Moscow, 27-year-old Gurban Gasimzadeh attacked 29-year-old Ainur Gasimzadeh with a knife when she was returning from a walk with her five-year-old son, writes Mash . The man tried to take the child away, and when this failed, he stabbed his ex-wife in the chest. She ended up in intensive care, and doctors managed to save her.

The suspect fled the crime scene. The Investigative Committee first opened a case of intentional infliction of grievous bodily harm (part 2 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code), and not of attempted murder. The Ministry of Internal Affairs notes that the man was previously convicted. According to Mash , the couple had been divorced for three years, and a year ago Ainur Gasymadze complained that her ex-husband had severely beaten her.
