Cannibal couple made human meat pies and supplied them to local restaurants

 

Alleged cannibal Natalia Baksheeva made 'pies' of suspected human meat and supplied them to local restaurants, it has been claimed.

The 42 year old and husband Dmitry Baksheev, 35, are detained amid urgent police investigations into her confession that the couple killed and ate 30 or more victims.

Cut-up human remains were found in their fridge and freezer, and elsewhere in their home at a hostel in a military academy in Krasnodar, southern Russia.

One victim was waitress Elena Vashrushev, 35, who lived close to Natalia and her husband. Others are feared to be women who joined dating websites before vanishing.

Neighbours say former nurse Natalia made and sold pies to boost her income, boasted to cafe owners that she could supply 'meat' and may have worked as a chef.

'I bake pies,' she told one local. Asked what she filled them with, she replied: 'Whatever is around.'

'People are trembling when recalling such exchanges,' reported newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets today.

She is believed to have sold to military trainees including student pilots attending the academy where she worked.

She offered to supply meat to at least one cafe in the city and also sought a job as a chef, the newspaper revealed.

Cafe owner Vitaly Yakubenko said: 'It was in 2010.

'She was very active, asked lots of questions but mainly about where we buy our meat and fish and how fresh it is. She made clear she could supply meant. I said that we work only with certified suppliers.'

The cafe owner added: 'The police should look now where this woman may have worked as a chef and if she tried to push her products there too.

'For sure these cannibals were looking for places to sell their meat. It sounded to me like her main motive when she was looking for a job.

Police are investigating how the couple were allowed to live for years in the grounds of a military academy run by the Russian Defence Ministry.

One officer said: 'We are a serious educational institution and now because of a drunk street cleaner (Baksheev) and a nurse we are in this scandal.'

A woman official said: 'Nobody will speak to you here. The bosses are in the state of shock, many fear losing their jobs.'

State investigators are seeking to verify the claims about dozens of victims of the sinister pair from Krasnodar who were detained after seven bags of body parts were found in their fridge and freezer.

At least one jar with pickled human remains, and 19 slices of skin were also discovered in the macabre flat.

Many cans with steamed meat were found in their kitchen,

A police source said: 'Going through the photographs, the woman has recognised more than 30 victims that they killed and eaten together with her husband.

Separate reports say Natalia was checked by a psychiatric hospital and found to be 'mentally healthy'.

'In their home, many mobile phones of their victims were found, and also video lessons on how to cook meals from human meat,' said the police source.

'This woman had been working in the military academy as a nurse and supposedly she was sharing these cans of steamed human meat with student pilots.'

But so far police have concrete evidence of only two women who were allegedly killed and eaten, it is understood.

Baksheev was originally detained after a man found his mobile in the street in regional capital Krasnodar and saw images of him posing for selfies with a woman's body parts.

'He took a selfie with the hand in his mouth, at the same time he put the fingers of the dead hand into his nose,' said a police report.
