A mother is accused of slitting her three-week-old baby daughter’s throat with a kitchen knife because she thought her husband loved the child more.
The 21-year-old mum, was jealous of the infant and killed the child when her 26-year-old partner left their flat for just a few minutes to throw away some rubbish, it is claimed.
When he returned to the apartment in Rivne, Ukraine, he found his wife, who cannot be named for legal reasons, covered in blood.
The horrified father rushed into the bedroom to check on his baby girl and saw her lying motionless in a pool of blood, then alerted police and paramedics, who rushed to the flat.
The mother had been released from a mental health facility just weeks before the incident, and told police she could not remember what happened, it was reported.
