MOSCOW, January 11 (RIA Novosti) - Two sisters have been found dead in an apartment in the city of Dzerzhinsk, 400 kilometers east of Moscow, two months after their mother was killed in a car crash, according to Russian police reports.
The infant girls, born in 2007 and 2008, were found dead of malnutrition and dehydration in their apartment on January 3. Their mother, who was raising the children alone after her husband left the family in September, was killed in a car accident last November.
According to the local police report, neighbors heard the children crying for several days; but none of them notified police.
The time of the infants' deaths has not been determined.
