A woman who pushed an acquaintance onto the rails in the subway was detained in Moscow.

Law enforcement agencies have detained a 39-year-old woman in Moscow who pushed her friend onto the subway tracks. This was announced on July 7 by the Main Directorate (GU) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the city.

"According to preliminary data, there was a conflict between a man and a woman who knew each other on the platform of the Kuntsevskaya metro station on the Bolshaya Koltsevaya Line. During the quarrel, the citizen pushed her opponent, which caused him to fall on a hard path," the agency's website says.

Thanks to the rapid actions, the police managed to quickly lift the 40-year-old victim onto the platform. He was not seriously injured. However, it was found out that the man was intoxicated. Because of this, he was prosecuted under Part 3 of Article 11.15.1 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation "Violation of the rules of conduct on transport that poses a threat to safety", as well as Article 20.21 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation "Appearing in public places in a state of intoxication".

An administrative offense report was drawn up against the woman under Article 20.1 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation "Minor hooliganism".
