The governor of the Tyumen region, Alexander Moor, instructed the police to investigate the circumstances of the beating of the manager of the restaurant “Happiness” Irina Valova, who was attacked today by former roommate Alexander Zhirikov.
Moore reported this in his social networks.
“It is impossible to look at these photos without pain. No one has the right to raise a hand against another person, especially a man against a woman. This is an absolutely immoral act,” the governor wrote. According to him, “this story is already being dealt with.”
About the incident in Instagram account said Maria Darkova, the founder of the restaurant where the victim works.
It is alleged that Zhirikov allegedly beat Valova “to a pulp.” “Well, there were sympathetic and self-sacrifice people nearby – guys unknown to us from the Samokat delivery service. Now Irina is in the hospital, in serious condition: she has a fracture of the bones of her skull, nose, and face. She still has a long treatment ahead of her, and we have to fight for her,” her post reads.
According to the manager, Valova broke up with Zhirikov because he beat her, but since November he began to pursue her demanding to continue the relationship, allegedly threatening to kill her. The police, according to the manager, “shrugged off this case, saying that nothing happened.”

“Our entire team was very afraid for Irina’s life, especially after this man kidnapped her and took her to the forest at knifepoint. One morning, Irina did not show up for work, we sounded the alarm, because she was never late for work and always arrived ahead of time. This time she did not answer the phone and did not get in touch. Her 17-year-old son traced the location, and it turned out that she was far outside the city, near the village of Kamenka. Then everything worked out, she returned alive, but in a state of extreme stress, ”said a colleague of the victim.
After the abduction, Zhirikov allegedly followed her: he guarded her near work, threatened to kill her, “grabbed, pulled, made scandals even at work, pursued her.” The employees of the restaurant escorted her home one by one, one of the employees settled her at his place. But the police, says Darkova, were inactive.
After the publication of the post, another woman, whose name and surname were not disclosed, turned to the founder of the restaurant. She also complained about the beatings of Zhirikov and the fact that he published her photos in sex groups.
