Torture of Children

A woman, a resident of Fastiv, reported to law enforcement that her partner systematically bullied her children.

“It has been established that the 27-year-old suspect committed psychological violence against the two-year-old boy and the three-year-old girl and applied physical force to them,” the police clarified.

The children were removed and taken to a hospital, where doctors recorded multiple bruises on the faces and bodies of the victims.
