   Spiritualist and her Iranian "magician" in happier times. 

Galina Trofimova (40), an English teacher and mother of two children, 
was living in Russia's Sakha (Yakutia) Republic along the shores of the 
Arctic Ocean, and divorced her abusive husband a year ago.  Based on
her interest in astrology, she began to organize "şaman" (spiritualist)
séances.  Galina became famous in her native country and on social
media with the name "Uu Dalaya". 

Trofimova's sister Kristina Semyonova had emigrated to Istanbul two 
years ago, began working in a finance company and invited Galina to 
join her.   Galina then began going to a Turkish course in Istanbul and 
met Iranian Armin Asgari (29) there.  The two had a mutual interest in 
"şamanism" and eventually, Galina and Asgari rented a flat in the
Kağıthane district of the city, living there together with her children.  
She wrote to her family back in Sakha that "a 'magician' has entered 
my life at a time when I wasn't intending to get close to anyone." 















                              Uu Dalaya at work.

Asgari was dealing in crypto money but suffered severe losses when 
the virtual currency dropped in value recently.  On the morning of 
25 December he woke up Galina's children, telling them that "we'll have
breakfast.  Your mother is sleeping so let's not wake her up."  Asgari
took the children to a hotel in Levent for breakfast and afterwards put 
them in a hotel room, saying that he would come back for them with
their mother. 

When Asgari had not returned by evening, the hotel staff talked with
the children (ages 11 and 8), got their mother's phone number from them 
and called her, getting no response.  They then called Galina's mother in 
Sakha, who put the hotel staff in touch with Kristina, who came to get 
the children.  Kristina and the children went to Galina's flat but when 
no one answered the door a locksmith was called.  Galina was found
motionless with black and blue marks on her neck - she had been
strangled to death.  

Police determined that Galina's wallet, telephone, gold and money
had been stolen.  A search began for Asgari, who had fled to Iran. 
Kristina has started a campaign on social media soliciting help to
send her older sister's body back to Sakha.
