A resident of Novosibirsk found herself under the influence of sect members.
The swindler convinced the 80-year-old woman that he was her close relative, and then persuaded her to sign over her apartment to him.
Three years before her death, the Siberian woman planned to leave the property to her great-niece, writes Komsomolskaya Pravda .
But then the woman met members of the sect. She was "worked on" by a resident of Kurgan, who introduced himself as her "son from past lives."
The swindler managed to convince the elderly Russian woman of this. The pensioner changed her mind about leaving the apartment to her niece and indicated a man from Kurgan in her will.
The pensioner's relative went to court and managed to prove that the pensioner was not in good health and of sound mind when she signed over the apartment to a stranger.
The woman explained that the previous owner of the apartment had suffered a stroke and suffered from dementia.
In addition, the sectarians misled the Siberian woman.
The court sided with the niece. The Kurgan resident filed an appeal, but the decision remained unchanged and entered into legal force.
For reference
A sect is a group of people who have separated themselves from the generally accepted worldview and adhere to certain views imposed by a special teaching.
