MOSCOW (Reuters) - A woman who brandished the severed head of a four-year-old girl in her care outside a Moscow metro station has said she beheaded the child to avenge Muslims killed in the Kremlin's campaign of air strikes in Syria.
In video posted online on Thursday and circulated by several prominent bloggers, 38-year-old Gulchekhra Bobokulova from Muslim-majority Uzbekistan gave her first detailed explanation of an incident that state TV channels chose not to report.
"I took revenge against those who spilled blood," Bobokulova told someone asking her questions off camera. "Putin spilled blood, planes carried out bombings. Why are Muslims being killed? They also want to live."
She also said she had wanted to go to live in Syria but did not have the money to do so. It was not clear when the video was filmed, but Bobokulova wore the same clothes as when she appeared in court on Wednesday.

behind the continued posting of this article without ONE SINGLE MENTION THAT SHE HAS SCHIZOPHRENIA?

The lady is out of her ever loving mind, nobody is making excuses for her. She is mentally ill, that is a fact.

(7,318 posts)11. She did this because she is mentally ill, not because of any race, religion
or political cause. That little, but very important word, "schizophrenic," explains her actions immediately and you leaving it out explains yours.
