Alexander Ivanovich Skrynnik (1953–1981), known as The Moldavian Chikatilo, was a Soviet serial killer who committed his crimes in Chișinău and Yakutia.
Although her torn body was found, it did not lead to the killer, and the murder remained unsolved until Skrynnik's capture.
Later, Skrynnik returned to Chișinău, where he worked as a carpenter in the "Bucuria" factory, was an udarnik and a candidate member of the CPSU.
He took Irina Trasyn, who had a seven-year-old child, on a date treating her with ice cream before stabbing her multiple times with a knife.
Soon after, Skrynnik killed a new victim named Anastasia Mikhailova, bringing to Glukharyov her severed hand.
Once Skrynnik, who was among the suspects, went into the Glukharyovs' house courtyard, the plain-clothed operatives tried to detain him, but Oksana told them: "Let Uncle Sasha go, he is good."
While investigating the case, Anatoly Magdalyuk, senior investigator for particularly important cases under the Prosecutor's Office of the Moldavian SSR, drew attention to an interesting fact: Glukharyov preferred that people not call him Feodosiy, but Fedor - a name only relatives and good friends called him.
Once at the station, an undercover operative called Dmitry Kozintsev by name and surname, upon which he tried to flee, but stumbled and was quickly detained.
Not long after, Skrynnik attacked another girl, Olga Lebedeva, in the Central Park of Culture and Rest of Lenin Komsomol.
Skrynnik was then summoned to the military registration and enlistment office, where he was required to fill out documents in block letters, and they coincided with the handwriting of the killer.
The Supreme Court of the Moldavian SSR sentenced Skrynnik to death, and he was subsequently executed by firing squad, but the exact date is unknown.
