PHOTOS: 14-year-old Girl Arrested for Arranging Mother’s Contract Killing

On April 3, 2023, a 14-year-old girl was arrested in Russia for allegedly ordering the contract killing of her mother, Anastasia Milosskaya, 38. The mother was beaten and strangled to death when she arrived home. Two days later, her body was wrapped in plastic and a mattress and dumped in a garbage skip in Balashikha in the Moscow region.

The girl and a 15-year-old boy, presumed to be her boyfriend and living in her family’s flat, are accused of paying two other teenagers 350,000 rubles ($6,730) to carry out the killing. The mother had ordered the boyfriend to leave, believing he was a bad influence on her daughter.

The daughter and the boy, along with the two other suspects, all aged between 14 and 17, were remanded in a young persons’ detention facility for one month pending further investigations. They are accused of allowing their “accomplices” into the flat and being present as the suspected contract killers allegedly attacked the woman when she returned home. The alleged killers then left the body in the flat where the daughter and boyfriend were living. Two days later, they returned and carried out the body on a makeshift stretcher, dumping it in a nearby skip – but a janitor found the corpse the next morning.

The Investigative Committee alleged that the girl and her boyfriend intended to live on her mother’s savings of more than £30,000. A friend of the 14-year-old girl said: “She spoke about hating her mother many times, even though her mother was a good person who loved her.” The girl’s grandmother said her granddaughter had come under the influence of the boy who was from a “difficult family”. Other sources said the victim had sought to improve her life and always cared for her daughter.

The maximum sentence the suspects face is ten years initially in a youth correctional colony.

As shocking as it sounds, this incident of a 14-year-old girl allegedly arranging her mother’s contract killing has sent shockwaves across Russia. The incident highlights the growing concern of juvenile delinquency and the need for increased parental guidance and social responsibility.
