In what is either
the weirdest Russian crime story of the year so far or
a new low in yellow crime journalism, a female hair stylist in the
Kaluga region is suspected of holding an armed robber in captivity as a
sex slave for two days after he unsuccessfully tried to knock over her
beauty salon.
The robber, a 32-year-old man identified by Life.ru as "Viktor," burst
into the salon at around 5 p.m. waving a pistol and ordered all of the
stylists and clients to hit the floor and toss him their money.
At this point, 28-year-old Olga, whom Life.ru describes as a
"delicate" girl trained in martial arts, was apparently still standing
when she offered to hand over her cash. But when Viktor tried to accept
her contribution, Olga surprised him with a quick punch to the chest,
knocking the wind out of him before she flipped him to the ground.
Olga proceeded to tie Viktor up with a
hair-dryer cord, gagged him and dragged him into a storage room.
Curiously, Life.ru reports, Olga instructed the others to keep working,
telling them that the police would soon arrive.
But this feel-good moment for the good guy proved ephemeral. Things
soon turned ugly, according to Life.ru.
The police did not come. And after the other stylists and clients
went home for the evening, Olga told Viktor to "take off his underwear"
and, with apologies to John Cougar Mellencamp, let her do as she
pleases, lest she call the cops, Life.ru said.
She tied him to the radiator with handcuffs covered in frilly pink
fabric, gave him some Viagra and had her way with him several times
over the next 48 hours. When she finally let him go on the evening of
March 16, Viktor had been "squeezed like a lemon," Life.ru reported.
First, he went to the hospital to have his injured genitals
treated; then he went to police and filed a complaint asking that Olga
be brought up on criminal charges for committing "actions of a sexual
nature" that left him with injured sexual organs, according to a copy of the complaint posted on
Life.ru.
Olga was apparently incensed when she learned of the complaint.
She had, after all, even tried to be nice to her purported captive.
"What a jerk," Life.ru quoted her as saying. "Yeah, there were a
few times. But I bought him new jeans, gave him food and drink, and
gave him 1,000 rubles when he left."
