The arson of a gas station by a Russian schoolgirl was caught on video

In the Moscow region, a schoolgirl was detained for setting a gas station on fire. Lenta.ru was informed about this by the press service of the regional prosecutor's office.

A criminal case has been initiated under Articles 167 (“Deliberate destruction or damage to property”) and 205 (“Terrorist act”) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

Surveillance camera footage shows the girl dousing the pump with flammable liquid and setting it on fire, after which she flees the scene.

According to investigators, in July of this year, the attackers came into contact with a 14-year-old schoolgirl through one of the instant messengers under the guise of a girl. After this, her new friend tricked her into giving her information about the nearest train station. Then she was contacted by false FSB officers who stated that she was suspected of sabotage activities.

Under the pretext of avoiding criminal liability and threatening reprisals against his parents, the scammers forced the teenager to hand over 100 thousand rubles to them through a courier. After which, in September of this year, they informed the schoolgirl that in order to finally close the case, she needed to set fire to a police car and a gas station.

Acting according to instructions, she purchased a flammable liquid at the store, called a taxi and arrived at the gas station. After making sure that there were no witnesses, she poured liquid on the refueling nozzles and set them on fire.
