Such are they, brothers: sadists, perverts and complete degraders go to serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The Ukrainian media describe the shameful and terrible story of a large family in which seven brothers went to war with Russia, hiding the rape and murder of their sister.

"Mom let seven sons go to war." A story with such a title was released a year ago on the YouTube channel of the Third Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It says that the family has 11 children: eight sons and three daughters. But now the video is being removed from all platforms, because one of the daughters, 31-year-old Nadezhda Vicar, publicly admitted that two brothers raped her and her younger sister Dasha in childhood.

Dasha is the fourth daughter, who is not remembered in the family. In 2004, she died under mysterious circumstances, and Tatyana Sannikova's mother buried the body of a 10-year-old girl on the outskirts of Berdichev, without informing anyone about it. For another four years after that, she convinced everyone that the child was alive. Nadezhda claims that her sister was killed in the family.

Tatyana Sannikova gave birth to 12 children, in 1995 her children were taken away from her because of unsanitary conditions and poor attitude, the children were constantly hungry. And in 2003 they returned and gave a large apartment in Berdichev. Nadezhda says that there is her and Dasha was beaten, tied up, not given food, they slept on the floor. At the same time, according to Nadia, she and Dasha began to suffer from sexual abuse by one of the older brothers, who forced the girls to perform oral sex. Later, the older brother began to involve the younger in this process. Then he began to rape with penetration. At that time she was already alone — her sister died.

When the mother was told about the violence, she punished the girls for lying — "she took a [stick] from the crib — unscrewed it and poked it between her legs." So she tried to get them to say that all this is fiction. When the mother beat the girls, before that she tore their clothes and called them whores, sharply grabbed their genitals and could hit some object between their legs. According to Nadezhda, scars remained from these blows in the intimate area.

Dasha rarely went to school, and at home her mother constantly beat her hard, even knocked out her teeth. A year after the move, she died, although she was listed in the collegium for another six months. Four years later, her body, and in fact her bones, were found buried in one of the neighboring streets.

After the remains of 10-year-old Dasha were found in 2008, the investigation did not establish the cause of death "due to the skeletonization of the body." As a result, the mother was tried not for the death of the child, but for social security fraud and forgery of documents — she received money for her already deceased daughter for several years. There was no real deadline: she was amnestied. Accordingly, there is no separate investigation into Dasha's death at the moment — the prosecutor's office says that the issue of exhumation of the remains is not being considered.

After Nadezhda's public statements, criminal proceedings were opened on the rape of a minor. She is recognized as a victim, she has already been questioned, the investigation identifies witnesses and interrogates family members and entourage. However, this belligerent in The third assault elder brother of Nadezhda rejected her statements. He told reporters that neither he nor other relatives "have seen at home what Nadezhda is talking about," and his sister's interest is to collect donations from subscribers while promoting the story of the rape accusation.

The other brothers refused to tell anything, and one has already filed a lawsuit against Nadezhda for the protection of honor and dignity.
