Former Wagner member faces trial for brutal murder of pregnant partner
The District Court in Omsk is handling the case of Sergey Kozlov, a former member of the Wagner Group, who brutally murdered his partner. In October last year, the man beat the pregnant 18-year-old woman, jumping on her while shouting that she was not worthy of having his child. The woman could not be saved.
According to the portal "The Insider," the District Court in Omsk in central Russia is handling the case of Sergey Kozlov, a 36-year-old former Wagner member, who in a horrendous way murdered his 18-year-old partner. The woman was pregnant.
The incident occurred in October last year. According to current findings, Kozlov was at a party with his partner, who is half his age. At some point, a fight broke out between them. The man claimed that the 18-year-old had destroyed his speaker.
Kozlov was so enraged that he attacked his partner. He beat her and jumped on her stomach despite the fact that the 18-year-old was pregnant with his child. He shouted that she was not worthy of being the mother of his child. He then crushed her throat with his boot, standing on her neck.
It was determined that the victim had traumatic brain injury, a broken nose, brain contusion, ruptured liver, and abdominal injuries. The description of all 138 injuries took up several pages - reports the Russian Kommersant.
This is not the first time Kozlov has had serious legal problems. Before he joined the Wagner Group, he was repeatedly punished for theft, grievous bodily harm, and robbery. He was recruited like other such riffraff - in prison.
In 2023, Sergey Kozlov received a medal for bravery. Of course, the honour was bestowed upon him for participating in the Ukraine war. In the summer of last year, the 36-year-old returned to Omsk. A few months later, he committed this shocking crime. According to Russian media, the man will face the court sentence on 9 September at 7 PM Greenwich Time.
This is another shocking story that describes how Putin's demoralised soldiers behave when they return from the front lines back to the country. Despite having such crimes on their conscience, they are honoured as heroes.
