The 21-year-old was taken to a hospital with multiple deep cuts on her left arm which led to severe blood loss on Wednesday.
“The 21-year-old Soldatova was taken to a Moscow hospital on February 5th with bodily injuries resulting from a suicide attempt,” Moscow news agency reported citing their sources in the hospital.
“She was also diagnosed with bulimia. At that moment the patient couldn’t be questioned. She is not willing to reveal the circumstances under which she received the injuries.”
