Rostov-on-Don: A Russian woman has been accused of torturing and thrashing her two-year-old son while filming the entire act on camera, according to a report in the Daily Mail.
In the video, the woman, identified as Tatiana, can be seen screaming and repeatedly hitting her son, Sasha, in the face as the child screams in pain.
The woman claimed that her motive behind shooting the video was to threaten her ex-husband who had filed for a divorce. She recorded the cruel act at her home in Rostov-On-Don, a city in south western Russia.
The couple's relatives said that Tatiana has been threatening her ex-husband and his family with the gruesome videos.
Woman filmed herself brutally beating son for revenge:
A case was registered against Tatiana after an unnamed relative found the video tape and informed the police.
Medical officers said that Sasha's body has been badly bruised. Although the child did not suffer permanent injuries, his father claims that he might have suffered mental trauma.
Sasha's paternal aunt and his grandmother are fighting a case for his custody. Investigators are further probing the matter and legal action would be taken against Tatiana, if convicted.
