A schoolgirl died after being brutally raped, stripped naked and dumped on railway tracks, then set on fire using a flammable liquid.
A train driver stopped when he saw 15-year-old Russian Yaroslav Shikhova horribly burned from the tracks and onto the grass.
Police believe the girl died wearing only socks after the brutal attack in the Perm region.
She was rushed to hospital and survived ten days, identifying her alleged assailant.
A school ‘friend’ named Sergei Minyazev (16), whose mother Irina is a prison warder and father Radik a police officer, has been detained on suspicion of rape and murder.

A school ‘friend’ named Sergei Minyazev (16), whose mother Irina is a prison warder and father Radik a police officer, has been detained on suspicion of rape and murder.
Two other teenagers are being questioned about their roles.
The case comes amid evidence of a rise in serious crime by young people in Russia amid Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine.
A shocked train driver saw him and stopped and radioed for help, the report said.
A railway employee said, ‘The girl was placed diagonally on the rail – there was blood and then she fell off the track and lost consciousness.’
‘His body was charred, even the dry grass around him was smoking.
‘When the paramedics arrived, he was still unconscious.’
The source said: ‘As we approached we saw a girl.
‘He was completely naked, wearing only socks.
‘No clothes found. His entire head was covered in blood, his hair was burnt.
‘There was no blood on the body. His head was hit against the rail.’
Shikhova was rushed to the hospital and after ten days she identified her alleged assailant
He said: ‘It’s lucky he didn’t get hit by the train.’
Witnesses said the victim had ‘burning liquid’ on her face [in the genital area].’
His attacker or attackers are ‘getting rid of the biological markers,’ he said. ‘I helped the paramedics carry the girl onto the stretcher.
‘He had burns on the left side of his body, on his left leg and arm. When they tried to pick him up the skin was torn from his hand.’
Her worried father, a college teacher, said she had come home from a party at Minyazev’s house, but had climbed out the window again, unbeknownst to her parents.
They believed he was sleeping in his room. The gruesome case has been taken under the ‘personal control’ of Alexander Bastrykin, Russia’s most senior criminal investigator.
Two months ago he lamented the ‘general increase in crime’, especially among teenagers and children.
‘We see a trend when serious and particularly serious crimes are committed by children,’ he said.
Bastrykin was a university classmate of Putin’s. A judge jailed Minajev for two months.
