According to investigators, in late December 2012, the accused woman motivated by personal dislike decided to kill her cohabiter. With this purpose she made a plan under which she had to find an accomplice. In the dormitory Astra in the town of Podolsk the woman offered an acquaintance of hers for a fee of 60 thousand rubles to commit the murder. The man agreed. The accomplices thought over their further plan and decided to kill the man in his flat in Podolsk.

In her turn the woman called her accomplice and said that she had found the murder weapon – an axe and that they had to kill him that night. Sometime later the accomplice with unidentified persons came in the car to the victim’s house and alone went into the flat, while the unidentified accomplices stayed in the car to wait.
The accused hit the victim no fewer than five times with the axe on his head. The man died on the spot. After the murder the woman gave the accomplice 27 thousand rubles and her passport as a guarantee that she would pay the rest of the money.
