Dmitry Lebed
Dmitry Valerievich Lebed (Russian: Дмитрий Валерьевич Лебедь; born 1986), known as The Abakan Strangler (Russian: Абаканский душитель), is a Russian serial killer and rapist who operated in the Khakassian city of Abakan and its surrounding areas. Using rented cars and pretending to be a taxi driver, he raped at least 12 women, at least 5 of whom he successfully murdered. Shortly following his arrest for the murder of 24-year-old Oksana Litvinova, he confessed to other crimes for which he received life imprisonment at a special regime colony.
Dmitry Lebed grew up in the small mining town of Abaza, one of three brothers. He was described as a quiet, calm child and a good student, whom, however, was bullied regularly, even by smaller children. When he got older, Lebed and his family moved to Abakan, where he got a job and married his first wife. It didn't last long, as their relationship quickly deteriorated, starting with a major scandal in the summer of 2012, which resulted in Lebed being thrown out of the house. Lebed later tried to get back to them, but his wife was so frightened of him that she took the children and fled to Krasnoyarsk, ceasing any and all contact with him. When questioned later on, she revealed that at one point, Lebed had choked her during an argument they had. Later on, Lebed entered a common-law marriage with Stella Komissarova, whom he treated with much more love, bringing her jewellery whenever he could - without Komissarova knowing that it belonged to victims of his.
On June 19, 2012, 22-year-old Anna Lashkova disappeared from Krylova Street, a few blocks from the high-rise building where Lebed lived in. Despite this, she only remains a suspected victim, as her body has never been found. Volunteers and investigators suspect that her corpse could be possibly be buried in a garbage dump behind the village of Bizha, but so far, it hasn't been found.
On the night of October 13–14, Lebed was dining at the Antalya Café in Abakan, where he came across a 20-year-old woman. Noticing that she was in a drunken state, he offered to have sex with her, to which she agreed. He then took her to a house near a drainage channel in the northern outskirts of the city, where he strangled after the pair got into an argument. Lebed then dragged the body out of the house and threw it in the drainage channel.
The woman's body was found on October 30, but police were unable to identify the killer at the time. Lebed was not connected to this murder until 2022, when he was already incarcerated for other murders.
On June 6, 2015, 30-year-old Natalya Yakova, a married mother of two, disappeared off the streets of Abakan. Little information is available about her killing, but authorities found her body a month after she vanished, on a road connecting Abakan and the settlement of Askiz.
A week after Yakova's disappearance, on Russia Day, Lebed picked up 29-year-old Nastya Borgoyakova. She had been out celebrating at a café with her husband and friends, but got into an argument with her spouse and left, flagging down the first car she saw, which happened to be Lebed's. He drove around 60–70 kilometers away from Abakan, stopping at a store along the way to buy vodka, before stopping at a farm area where some shepherds were herding cattle. Supposedly, in his half-an-hour-long stay, Lebed sexually assaulted and finally strangled Nastya, but decided against dropping her body off there, as the shepherds would find it very easily. He instead drove to the Askizsky District, where he disposed of the body in the forest, among the kneep-deep tall grass.
A vast search and rescue operation, led by Borgoyakova's father - Viktor Kicheev (an ex-police officer), was initiated, but yielded no success. Kicheev, dissatisfied with the lax attitude of the authorities working on the case, did research of his own, realising that young women have been vanishing without a trace from Abakan and the surrounding areas for a few years. In spite of his correct deduction of a serial killer operating in the area, his claims were not taken seriously by police. His daughter's body was found two and a half years later, in November 2017.
