The jury issued an acquittal in a criminal case against a 42-year-old resident of Yekaterinburg Natalia Isayeva, who was accused of organizing preparations for murder for hire. This is reported by the press service of the courts of the Sverdlovsk region.

According to investigators, Isayeva decided to commit a crime on the grounds of hostility to her former partner. The conflict arose over disputes over the organization and timing of meetings with their child.

The woman, according to the prosecution, found the perpetrator and promised him a monetary reward of at least 276 998 rubles. However, the “killer” warned the victim about the impending attempt, and he appealed to law enforcement agencies.
