A woman has been arrested after she pulled a child’s
severed head from her bag and threatened to blow herself up, shouting, ‘I am a
terrorist’.
A video showing the disturbing incident near
Oktyabrskoye Pole metro station in northwest Moscow.
She is suspected of killing the child when it was in
her care, officials said.
Videos posted on Russian news websites show a woman
dressed all in black, holding the severed head and shouting “I am a terrorist”
in Russian, although most of what she says is incomprehensible.
In some of the videos the woman is tackled by men
who appear to be police.
The Investigative Committee released a statement
saying a woman was arrested Monday on suspicion of killing a child aged 3 or 4
in an apartment near the metro station in northwestern Moscow and then setting
the apartment on fire.
The woman, a 38-year-old native of one of the former
Soviet republics in Central Asia, was believed to be the nanny and appeared to
be mentally unstable, the statement said.
