Vaschenko, a freed convicted killer, was charged by the Russian Investigative Committee with child rape resulting in murder.
Responding to the tragedy, a close friend of Vladimir Putin said, “Your blood runs cold when the child’s kidnapping, rape and murder occurs.”
Russian senator Alexander Khinstein, who flew through legalisation to imprison paedophiles for life, said: “this is a wild, inhuman crime that makes your blood run cold”.
