CHILD SNATCHER Putin crony, 71, & wife raising abducted girl, 2, as their OWN after she was kidnapped by Russia in Ukraine invasion

PRO-PUTIN politician Sergey Mironov and his fifth wife are alleged to have "stolen" a girl, two, from Ukraine to raise as their own.

Ukrainian officials have demanded the toddler be returned so she can be reunited with her blood sister and her legal guardian.

Ukrainian officials are demanding that Margarita, two, be returned to her family.
Margarita was allegedly taken from a Ukrainian orphanage at 10 months
Mironov, the leader of social democratic party Fair Russia, allegedly committed a war crime when he and his wife "kidnapped" a then 10-month-old girl and a boy from from occupied Ukraine.

The politician, 71, and his new wife Irina Varlamova, 56, are said to have adopted the girl from a Ukrainian orphanage.

They changed her name and altered her birth certificate to indicate she was born near Moscow, according to a new investigation.

It has been revealed that the little girl, whose real name is Margarita but is now named Marina Mironova, has a legal Ukrainian guardian.

Margarita's guardian, Daria Repina, is living in exile from the Russia-Ukraine war in Greece with Margarita's full sibling, Anna.
The boy the pair "kidnapped" was reportedly taken to Russia by Mironov's wife, but was rejected by the couple after less than a week.

Then aged two, now four, he was thrown out like an unwanted kitten, according to Ukrainian media.

The Ukrainian Parliament's human rights ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets said: "Varlamova got rid of the boy when it became known that Ilya Vashchenko (the boy) was diagnosed with a disease."

Varlamova's leaked emails reportedly revealed she complained about being given a "low quality child".

The little boy's fate is unknown, according to the Child Protection Department of the Office of the Prosecutor General in Ukraine, but a new birth certificate was issued for him in Moscow region.
