Neighbour of girl, 17, mauled to death by pigs ‘knocked teen out and left her to be eaten alive after row with her dad’

It is said that the neighbor of a girl who was mauled to death by pigs knocked her unconscious and left her to be eaten alive.

Milena Shevelyova, 17, was allegedly beaten by 40-year-old Igor Zaika on the same day that she and her father got into a fight.

At her family’s farm in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia, the teenager was slaughtered by the animals on Saturday night.

Police believed that a particularly aggressive pig had led the attack, knocking her down and then severing her femoral artery.

However, new information has resulted in Milenia’s neighbor being arrested and charged after he admitted to abusing her while she was shocked.

“I opened the door and saw his daughter leaving,” Igor said to the police. I hit her twice.

I hit her the first time, she [pushed me] away. The second time, I struck her.

I hit her a second time, she fell over there.

The man had reportedly fought with the girl’s father the same day and entered the pigpen in the evening with the aim of setting it on fire.

It has also been revealed that Igor harboured a grudge and intended to kill the livestock belonging to the family.

However, when the adolescent entered, he was taken by surprise, and authorities think he assaulted her before fleeing.

He hit her on the head several times until she lost consciousness and then left her to the pigs, cops say.

Igor has been taken into custody and accused of being negligent in causing death.

The Investigative Committee ofRussiafor Krasnoyarsk Krai and the Republic of Khakassia said: “During the investigation, investigators and forensic specialists, in cooperation withpoliceofficers, established that the girl’s death might be linked to a resident of the village of Ushkanka in the Uzhursky District, who lives nearby.

“He allegedly inflicted bodily injuries on the girl, causing her to lose consciousness.

“Currently,the suspecthas been brought to the investigative department for further investigative actions.”

It is still unclear how long Milena was left alone to bleed out for.
