Moscow (AFP) - A nanny accused of decapitating a young girl in her care then walking through the street brandishing the head, on Wednesday said "Allah ordered" the killing as she appeared at a Moscow court.

Suspect Gyulchekhra Bobokulova from Muslim-majority Uzbekistan -- whom the press have dubbed "the bloody nanny" -- was detained on Monday as she was waving the child's severed head outside a metro station in northwestern Moscow. She was sent for psychiatric examinations.

"It was what Allah ordered," the 38-year-old told journalists as she was brought into the district court to have her arrest confirmed and extended.

The mass-circulation Moskovsky Komsomolets, citing Uzbek police, said the woman had suffered from schizophrenia for about 15 years.

1. I doubt Allah did that

I think she's been talking to David Berkowitz' neighbor's dog.

2. Don't you just love a benevolent and merciful deity?

6. The one that gave her schizophrenia?

16. Funny how rarely schizophrenic folks kill people and blame logical empiricism

3. "... The motive for the attack is still unknown. Previously, the woman claimed

that the attack was motivated by her partner's cheating ..."

4. Is Allah related to the God who told Cruz

that everyone but him should drop out of the presidential race?

The gods must be crazy.

11. Schizophrenia plus religious fundamentalism

Never a good combination.

[dembotoz]

7. to have god on your side and to be a psycho also a christian trait

we seem to forget that when inconvenient

[FrodosPet]

10. Searching for the truth is a wonderful thing

When someone "finds" it, things usually go downhill fast.

8. She sounds mentally ill

She should be found unfit for trial.

[FrodosPet]

9. Religion plus mental illness is a bad combination

Exclusionary apocalyptic religions like Christianity and Islam, especially under the direction of egotistical sociopathic "congregation" leaders, can make troubled people absolutely vicious.

13. does Russian law exempt the mentally ill from criminal trial?

i don't even want to look at the comment section for the OP article...

14. Muslims are peaceful people

A Muslim would never do this. She is a non-believer making a mockery of a peaceful religion.

BTW, if she tried this an America, our Police would put that dog out of her misery on the spot.

What a joke Russia is.

[whatthehey]

17. Christ now we have Muslim NTS apologetics too

So the only people who WOULD do this are what exactly, religiously speaking?

She certainly invested a lot of years pretending to be Muslim - why'd she do that?

[tritsofme]

18. Who are you to tell someone such a thing?

Sarcasm is hard to detect without a tag, so perhaps I missed it here.

If someone states they believe in something and identify as such, who in the world are you to critique the sincerity of their belief?

[gratuitous]

15. Under the latest round of "religious freedom" laws being proposed

Right now, one of the conservative hobbyhorses is the "religious freedom restoration act," designed (among other things) to relieve clergy from the prospect of being forced to perform same sex marriages, which is of course totally not a thing. Other sections of these laws purport to allow people to break the law if they hold a sincere religious belief that they don't have to follow the law.

Ms. Bobokulova sounds like a prime candidate for the psycho ward, but what if she stuck by her statements that God told her to decapitate an infant and parade the disembodied head in the town square in one of these states enacting this religious freedom legislation? Would she have that absolute immunity from prosecution for her sincerely held religious belief? I know it's not quite analogous to a bakery being "forced" to transact business with all the public, or a conservative congregation being "forced" to not stone homosexuals, but what are we talking about if not a matter of degree?
