A pathologist-anatomist and Hare Krishna follower who "married" a 12-year-old girl in Yekaterinburg has been sentenced.
In Yekaterinburg a verdict was handed down against the former head of the pathology department of City Children's Clinical Hospital No. 9, Sergey Okladnikov, who performed a "marriage rite" by having sexual intercourse with the 12‑year‑old daughter of a family acquaintance.
Being single, on the night of January 11, while staying at a friend's cottage in Bolshoy Istok, he conducted a wedding ritual with the 12‑year‑old girl, after which he invited her to come to his home to "fulfill his marital duty," a source familiar with the situation told KP‑Yekaterinburg.
Like the girl's father, Okladnikov belonged to the local Krishna community. However, lawyer Alexander Kagarmanov, who represents the Krishna followers, previously said that there is no such rite in their religion.
On the evening of February 13, after the teenager told her parents what had happened, the pathologist himself went to the police station and confessed to everything. He was charged under paragraph "b" of part 4 of Article 131 of the Russian Criminal Code (rape of a victim who had not reached the age of fourteen).
The Verkh‑Isetsky District Court of Yekaterinburg found Okladnikov guilty and sentenced him to 12 years in a maximum‑security penal colony, followed by 1.5 years of restriction of freedom.
