A schoolgirl has died after being brutally raped, thrown naked on a railway track and then set on fire with a flammable liquid.
A train conductor stopped when he saw 15-year-old Russian Yaroslavl Shikhova, horribly burned, slipping off the track onto the grass.
Police believe the girl died wearing only socks after being savagely attacked in the Perm region.
She was rushed to hospital and survived for ten days, during which time she identified her alleged attacker.
A school ‘friend’ named Sergey Minyazev, 16, whose mother Irina is a jailer and father Radik, a police officer, has been arrested on suspicion of rape and murder.

A school ‘friend’ named Sergey Minyazev, 16, whose mother Irina is a jailer and father Radik, a police officer, has been arrested on suspicion of rape and murder.
Two other teens are being questioned about their roles.
The case comes amid evidence of a rise in serious crimes in Russia by youths amid Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine.
A startled train conductor stopped and radioed for help when he saw her, the reports said.
“The girl was placed diagonally on the rails, there was blood, and then she went off the track and lost consciousness,” a railway employee said.
‘There were burns on his body, and even the dry grass around it was smoking.
“When the paramedics arrived, he was still unconscious.”
The source said: ‘As we got closer, we saw a girl.
“She was completely naked, she was only wearing socks.
‘No clothes found. His whole head was covered in blood, his hair was burned.
‘There was no blood on the body. His head had been smashed against the rails.
Shikhova was rushed to hospital and survived for ten days, during which time she identified her alleged attacker.
He said: ‘It was very lucky that she didn’t get hit by a train.’
The witness said that the tortured girl had ‘flammable liquid in her mouth and [in the genital area].’
His attacker or attackers “were getting rid of the biological traces,” he said.
‘I helped the paramedics carry the girl on a stretcher.
‘He had burns on the left side of his body, his left leg and left arm. She peeled the skin off her hands when they tried to pick her up.
Her distraught father, a university professor, said she had come home from a party at Minyazev’s house, but unknown to her parents, she had climbed back out of the window.
They thought she was asleep in her room. The gruesome case has been taken under the “personal control” of Russia’s top criminal investigator, Alexander Bastrykin.
Two months ago, he lamented a “general increase in crime,” especially among adolescents and children.
“We see a trend when children commit serious and particularly serious crimes,” he said.
Bastrykin was Putin’s classmate at the university. A judge detained Minyazev for two months.
