A man from Kudymkar in Perm
region axed his wife to death while believing that she was a vampire, according
to police.
Ivan Chetin, aged 53, had been
on a drinking spree "when he took an axe and started to chop everything
around him".
'He severed her hands, legs
and head and also chopped off her breasts,' say local reports.
'It seemed to him that he was
surrounded by vampires,' disclosed a source at the Kudymkar branch of the
Investigative Committee of Russia.
'The man grabbed an axe and
began to fight them. As a result, he struck his wife, then chopped her body and
put the bleeding pieces to the bath.'
Having sobered up the man
realised what he had done and confessed to his niece. She called the police who
detained the 'axeman'.
Chetin is awaiting trial and
faced the prospect of up to 15 years in jail if found guilty of murdering his
wife.
His 54 year old spouse - who
was not named - was 'kind and loved Ivan', said a neighbour.
'She always kept their house
tidy, and was very friendly'.
