A 13-year-old boy has allegedly tortured and stabbed a 78-year-old disabled woman to death just to steal £1.75 [about N836.99].

The teenager was also alleged to have cut off the woman’s breasts.

The incident happened in the village of Chesma in Chesmensky District of the Central Russian Chelyabinsk Oblast region of Russia.

Police in the country said the teenager broke into his grandmother’s friend home, pulling out a knife and demanding cash.

Police prosecutors said the victim was stabbed in the face and body 60 times and her breasts were cut off.

He escaped with 150 Rubles, the equivalent of just £1.75, it is claimed.

The woman, who recognised the schoolboy as the grandson of her friend, asked him to leave before she was tortured.

He only stopped when he realised she was not breathing, and after grabbing the money he left the apartment and later used the money to top up his mobile phone account.
