A case has been opened due to the death of a girl who fell from a window in Yekaterinburg.
The investigative department of the Investigative Committee of Russia for the Ordzhonikidze District has initiated a criminal case under the article "Causing death by negligence" following the death of a 7-year-old girl in Elmashe. Recall that the incident occurred on the evening of April 26 on Shefskaya Street when the girl opened a plastic window and leaned against the mosquito net. After falling from the sixth floor, the girl died on the spot.
— The criminal case is without a suspect. It has been initiated to investigate all circumstances through investigative means. There are currently no grounds to believe that the mother is to blame for what happened, — a source told the publication "KP-Ekaterinburg."
Julia's mother planned to install special window locks to block the windows. But that evening she left the girl alone to prepare dinner.
— More detailed and accurate circumstances of the incident are currently being clarified by police and investigators. Given the approaching warm season, I especially urge parents, grandparents, and other legal representatives to pay special attention to the safety of children near windows, so that similar emergencies do not occur again, — clarified the press secretary of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Sverdlovsk Region, Valery Gorelykh.
Recall that in January, the body of an 11-year-old girl was found under a high-rise building in the Academic District.
