This pretty Russian top cop has been arrested after a year on the run for allegedly falsifying evidence which sent an innocent person to prison.

Natalia Razumnaya, 38, was the Head of the Inquiry Department of a police station located in the Proletarskiy district in southwestern Russia’s city of Rostov-on-Don and reportedly held the rank of Colonel.

Local media report that between 2015 and 2016 she was working on an arms trafficking case when she allegedly falsified evidence in order to cover up for one of the criminals involved.

According to local newspapers, her actions allegedly sent an innocent person to jail and in 2017 she is suspected of having fraudulently seized money that belonged to an unidentified person.

The police launched a criminal case against her in 2018 and Razumnaya reportedly fled to Georgia, abandoning her daughter who has been living with her grandmother since.

After a year abroad the suspect reportedly returned to Rostov-on-Don recently for “urgent matters” and police managed to arrest her.

Razumnaya was an active Instagram user, frequently posting photos of her daily life before the criminal case against her was launched.

It is unclear if she has been charged.

Netizen ‘Sergej Streck’ said: “She is so ugly, I mean, look at her eyebrows.”

And ‘Serba Ekaterina’ added: “She looks like a whore to me.”
