A Ukrainian teen who was gang-raped, dumped in a ditch and set on fire has died days after she posted a tragic online video revealing her ordeal.
Oksana Makar bravely told from her hospital bed how she was raped, strangled and burned by three men in a savage attack which stripped off 55 per cent of her skin.
Her harrowing hospital video, filmed by her mother, emerged after medics had been forced to amputate one of her arms and both her feet in a battle to keep her alive.
But after a two-week fight for life, health officials in Donetsk said Oksana, 18, died yesterday of severe burns and damage to her lungs.
The rape attack on Oksana shocked Ukraine with its cruelty, and also caused nationwide protests against corruption after police initially released two of the suspects who had powerful connections in the region.
Two of the suspects were Maxim Prisyjnikov, 23, the son of the regional administrator, and Artyon Pogosyan, 21, the son of the regional prosecutor, according to the Hurriyet Daily News.
The 18-year-old claims she was invited by Prisyjnikov and Pogosyan to their friend Yevgeniy Krasnoshek's apartment, where she was allegedly raped.
They tried to strangle her to death before wrapping her in a sheet, dumping her in a pit at a construction site and setting her alight, it was alleged in the Kyiv Post.
Miss Makar was found barely alive the following day by a man who heard her moaning. After undergoing surgery, she was finally able to recount her ordeal to police.
She regained consciousness last week Friday, but doctors induced a coma and moved her from a hospital in Mykolayiv to a burn treatment center in Donetsk.
In an interview with Gazeta.ua after the attack, she said: 'I could not feel my body. At first, I was screaming for help.
'But there was nobody there, I began to pray. I thought I had died. I remember it all as if in a fog.'
The three suspects were arrested, but two of them were released later that day due to lack of evidence, according to the Mykolayiv prosecutor’s office.

ReplyDeleteSo, corruption is not exclusive to Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteIf the worldly security men frees the suspects, they should remember that there is an Ultimate Security Man that they can never be freed from. They will die a slow and painful death. Kai! Such callousness,
One thing is sure; some pple cant die well. What pleasure did they possibly expect to enjoy??? The rate at which cruelty is growing in the world nowadays is alarming. God rest her soul.

This is just horrible. Watched the video and have being crying. There are so many evil things happening this world right now and its scary. It like this world is not safe at all for anyone especially for females. I am tired of reading bad news everyday, if its not someone being killed innocently, it will be a lady getting rape and possibly killed or someone falling off an elevator. Are these signs of the world coming to an end or what??? God, pls help us, keep us save and far away from evil people. May God wipe away evil people for this world and that your children may live in peace, love, happiness and safety. Amen!!!

ReplyDeleteIf its Nigeria now, some of you will be shouting blue murder. See corruption wearing dansiki and sokoto in Ukraine. Walahi, oyinbo people will not die well. They always make the world believe that everything bad emanated from Africa. Heard one junk journalist talking about how all Nigerian men murder their wives. They won't see this one now. See wickedness and maliciousness of the highest order in Ukraine their meighbor. May her spirit haunt those bastards to a horrible death.
