MOSCOW (AP) — A nanny accused of decapitating a 4-year-old girl and brandishing her head outside a Moscow subway station has been formally charged with murder.
Vladimir Markin, spokesman for Russia’s Investigative Committee, announced the charge on Friday. Under Russian law, a conviction carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment or the death penalty, although Russia placed a moratorium on capital punishment in 1999.
Gulchekhra Bobokulova, 38, was detained in Moscow on Monday after she was seen with the child’s head.
Officials have suggested the woman, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2003, could have been incited to kill as an act of terrorism, but Markin said investigation into the motive is continuing.

Not ALL Muslims chop off baby heads in 3…2…1…
If this happened here in the states Obama would have jumped on n this as “WORKPLACE VIOLENCE”!!! All of the terrorist attacks and acts of violence whether in Europe or the states are quickly swept under the rug as something other than it really is…:Evil" plain and simple! Dismissing an act of terror as anything less than terrorism is an act of terror itself!
And dismissing your comments as absolute trollshit is an act of wisdom -
Are you dismissing this as workplace violence as well cluncker? Are you dismissing the fact that she is muslim may have had something to do with beheading of a child with all the news currently surrounding these atrocities from ISIS that are a signature of their brutal form of ISLAM? Is the mention of terrorism when a beheading is involved so “off base” that we can not even Mention it?
You will note that President Obama did call at least ONE beheading incident as workplace violence right?
