A nursery in Russia has refused to receive a girl in Russia because of a skull deformation, requiring surgery first before being admitted.
Mother Svetlana said that the nursery refused to receive her daughter Sofia Zakharov, arguing that she would "frighten other children".
Russian media reports have circulated the story of the girl, who also suffers from the disfigurement of her fingers and toes, without explaining the nature of her illness.
The nursery's decision sparked anger and resentment on social media platforms in Russia, amid demands to punish those responsible for their behavior, which is devoid of humanity.
Psychologists have warned that Sofia's condition could deteriorate if it does not mix with other children of her age.
