A 45-year-old man detained in the city of Chelyabinsk, in the Urals, is suspected of molesting children in a particularly unusual and sinister way. The police had been searching for the criminal, nicknamed the ‘Dentist’, since 1996.
The maniac would enter elevators together with young children aged around 6 to 12, stop the elevator between floors, and after injecting anesthetic into the victims’ gums, would pull their teeth out with a pair of pliers.
The last attack took place recently in an apartment block on the city’s Oktyabrskaya Street. A local schoolboy told police that a man aged 35 to 40 entered an elevator behind him and said: ''Your teeth don’t look so good. Let me give you a painkiller and I’ll cure them.'' Then the ‘dentist’ stopped the elevator and produced a syringe and injected an anesthetic into the boy’s gums.
The subsequent attempt to remove one of the boy’s front teeth with the pliers ended in the tooth simply breaking. The man then took off the boy’s boots saying that one ''must enter the doctor’s room without footwear'', and fled.
A similar case took place in the city late last year when a boy managed to escape from an attacker who tried to inject something into his gums. The man’s description in both cases matched.
The police created an identikit picture of the criminal and managed to detain the suspect. As operatives searched his apartment, they also found a pack of pornographic photos of children. The detainee, however, strongly denied his guilt and said that he was a law-abiding citizen and a father of two children, though he lives apart from his family.
The investigation is continuing.
