Vladimir Putin's father gouged out his mother's eye with a pitchfork, it was revealed.
The violent attack came when his mother Maria was just 17 and as a result of the incident in which she lost her eye, Vladimir senior was ordered to marry her.
The attack was 'in a fit of rage' according to independent news outlet Proekt.
The bizarre story has emerged as a new book - The Tsar in Person. How Vladimir Putin Fooled Us All - details the Kremlin despot's life, and was highlighted by Proekt.
Putin's father arrived with male friends when Maria - known as Marusya - was home alone in her village in Tver region in 1928.
'Marusya didn't want to let them in,' said an account by villager Anfisa Kormilitsyna.
This apparently enraged Putin's father.
'They took the pitchfork that was standing by the fence and started breaking down the gate.'
'She got scared, ran out of the house, and raced up to the fence.
'And Volodka [Vladimir senior, Putin's father] at that moment broke through the gate with the pitchfork and hit Marusya right in the face.
'In short, he accidentally gouged out her eye.
'He took her to the hospital right away.
'There, Marusya's eye was removed.
'For a girl in those days, this was a disgrace: who would marry a defective woman?
'So Marusya's mother threatened Volodka: if you don't marry, I'll put you on trial.
'So they got married.
'Marusya was very embarrassed about her glass eye later, never looked you in the face when talking, and tilted her head to the side.'
She revealed Putin's wild father was notorious for terrorising teenage girls in his village.
'He liked to lift up girls' skirts and tie them in a knot over their heads,' said Anfisa.

she was born in 1911 and had Vlad at 42, impressive.
No fan of Putin, but this sounds like it was written by the same people who said Trump jumped up and down and peed on a mattress in a hotel in Moscow ... which he never did. Note that the behavior claimed of Trump is exactly how liberal women act e.g. projection.
FO C
Read the article...It was an accident and he drove her to the hospital.
Russian foreplay
So… Now at least he has an excuse for his insanity. Then again, plenty of people have seen their mothers abused and they didn’t turn into pathological monsters who worship Hitler and Stalin.
😂😂😂
What? Putin’s father did not push his wife out of a window?

Judgments should be based on truth, and given that things are as clear as mud here, no judgment should be made based on your prejudices until truth can be ascertained with some confidence.
Great research. What a bunch of Ukie Propaganda trash articles.

Meanwhile in the real world…
VP Vance says he and Trump will no longer be pouring money into Ukraines war.

Man, here was me thinking I was awkward around women ...
What is important to understand about Putin is how much he was profoundly affected by WW-II.
Same people, same bulls*ht times 3 years.
Good question.
I'll keep a eye out for the answer...
If true, yes he didnt mean to pitchfork her face. The breaking and entering and terrorizing her otherwise, does seem to be recorded as intentional.
To paraphrase your comment elsewhere:
What on earth do the EU and Ukraine have to do with the article?
Does Kaya Kallas have a glass eye?
Give AnglePark and me some context, please?
