[국제]Live YouTube live broadcast of rape scene in Russia, excommunicated… Even accept sponsorship

The crime scene of rape of a woman in Russia has been broadcast live on YouTube, causing ripples.

According to the UK Daily Mail on the 26th, the crime scene of a gang rape in Yaroslavl, Russia was broadcast live on YouTube and Telegram. Most of the perpetrators were known to belong to local gangs, according to Russian police investigations.

The perpetrators raped a woman in an apartment and then dumped it into a garbage dump in the apartment complex. In addition, they received a SuperChat sponsorship from viewers who connected to YouTube, and each time they received sponsorship, they acted more violently and induce more money.

The 30-year-old victim was unconscious after being given drugs used for dating rape before the crime. The victim was a mother with three children, and after divorcing her husband, it turned out that she was dating one of the perpetrators.

Later, it was reported that the victim’s relatives reported the video to the police after finding the video online. According to reports, the video containing the criminal activity has been deleted, but it is known that the video of abandoning a woman in the garbage is still online.

Recently, there has been a case of filming or broadcasting live videos containing criminal activities for the purpose of money in Russia, and there are high voices demanding revision of the law in the region. Last year, Russian YouTuber’Replay’ hit his girlfriend and forced him to stand naked at sub-zero temperatures, causing controversy. The YouTuber was arrested for inflicting serious bodily harm to others.

Yulya Nikkiforova, a spokesman for the Yaroslavl Ministry of Interior, said, “The police have begun an investigation into the case.”
