Majorca, Russia: In a gruesome act, a Russian woman has been accused of murdering her husband and feeding him to their pet dog, Staffordshire Bull Terrier.
The woman, from Russia's Majorca, was staying with her husband at their house in Cala Millor, a popular place among holidaymakers.
Identified as Svetlana Batukova, the woman has been arrested by Majorca police after she allegedly hired a man to kill her husband.
Batukova had offered a man €50,000 to kill her husband, Hans Henkels. Police said that Henkels bled to death after he was stabbed by the accused. The killer had cut down the arms of Henkels and fed the strips of flesh to the dog.
Investigators said that the victim had recently undergone a windpipe surgery due to which he was unable to speak when the incident happened. They believe that the victim might have been unable to defend himself, since they could not find any marks on his body.
Investigators are trying to ascertain the motive behind the murder. Batukova and Henkels had married in January after living in for two years.
