A Russian woman has come under investigation after beating her newborn child on live television.
The Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, drew attention to the situation. He instructed his subordinates to conduct an investigation and report on the results.
The attention of investigators was drawn to information that recently appeared in the media and social networks.

It was reported that a young resident of Makhachkala had been abusing her baby.
This took place during a live internet broadcast watched by an undisclosed number of users.
But the situation has caused a stir. The regional Investigative Committee has already organized an investigation.
According to preliminary data, the young woman is a mother of many children. She regularly beats her children, uses illegal substances and is suspected of being a prostitute.
At this stage, no criminal case has been opened. A decision on this will be made based on the results of the investigation.
