CRIMEA —The press service of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatars called not to politicize the murder of a 5-year-old boy by a Tatar man in the city of Dzhankoi and not to accentuate on the role of the religious factor in the act, Criminal Ukraine reports.

Interfax reported on June 21 that the man suspected in the murder of a 5-year-old boy in Jankoy, Crimea, is a Wahabi.

When the police tried to detain the man, he resisted and cried that he hadn't killed anyone, but made a sacrifice for Allah, the Russian News Service radio reported.

As the PR Department of the Ukraine's Interior Ministry in Crimea earlier reported, the Jankoy central hospital received a call from a private housing estate on June 18. The emergency arrived to find a child with evident signs of violent death.

He was playing in the sandpit together with his sister and a neighborhood girl when a passer-by stopped near the playground and asked the boy to look at a beautiful bird. When the child looked up, the stranger stroked him to the neck with a sharp object and ran away.

The police detained a 27-year old resident of Jankoy suspected on murder suspicion. When he was searched, the officers found and confiscated material evidence from him proving his involvement in the crime.
