In Dagestan, a girl tried to poison her opponent at a chess tournament with mercury.
The competition took place on August 2 at the Chess House in Makhachkala. Cameras filmed 40-year-old Amina Abakarova studying the list of participants and then pouring and grinding mercury next to the chessboard.
Her victim turned out to be Umayganat Osmanova (third photo). A check is being carried out under the article “Intentional infliction of minor harm to health.”
UPD: The Russian Chess Federation announced the suspension of chess player Amina Abakarova pending the conclusion of law enforcement agencies.
