The acquittal of a woman from Yekaterinburg, accused of murdering her 3-year-old son, has been overturned.
The Second Appellate Court of General Jurisdiction (located in St. Petersburg) has annulled the verdict of the Sverdlovsk Regional Court regarding the case of a mother who killed her 3-year-old child, following the results of the appellate review. This was reported on Tuesday by the press service of the Sverdlovsk courts.
According to the prosecution, in April 2025, Natalia Guseva, while in an apartment on Lilac Boulevard in Yekaterinburg, beat her 3-year-old son, causing him injuries. She only sought medical help after the intervention of an acquaintance. On the day of his return from the children's hospital, Guseva again inflicted violence on the boy, who died from multiple injuries.
The criminal case was considered with the participation of jurors. The jury's verdict acquitted Guseva of both murder and child abuse.
Together with her lawyer Alexander Kozlov, the defendant managed to prove that she was not at home at the time of the tragedy, on the evening of April 29, reports "KP-Yekaterinburg." According to the defense's version, the child was brutally beaten by Natalia's partner, migrant Shamsulo Yangiev, who then called her saying that Alisher had "fallen." Guseva, according to her, ran home from the store just a few minutes before the arrival of the ambulance, and the child died in her arms.
Based on the jury's acquittal verdict, an acquittal sentence was issued for Natalia Guseva, and her right to rehabilitation was recognized.
The appeal today annulled the acquittal sentence. Following the appellate review, the criminal case has been sent back to the Sverdlovsk Regional Court for reconsideration by a different panel of judges.
It is worth noting that in June, the jury had already issued a second acquittal verdict regarding another resident of Yekaterinburg. The defendant, Natalia Isaeva, was accused of organizing the preparation for the murder of her daughter's father. The jurors deemed the crime event unproven, even though the accused had seen footage of the staged death of the victim and had asked the "killer" how to behave during the interrogation.
