Escort scammer and missed earnings: having been expelled for deceit, Karina Iminova played the role of a spotter in the violent murder of Aishat in Yerevan

Journalists have revealed possible reasons why Karina Iminova, originally from Kyrgyzstan, may have agreed to participate in the killing of Aishat Baimuradova in Yerevan.
Karina made a living through escort work, but was recently blocked from all “work groups” and added to blacklists. She no longer had the ability to earn money in her usual way and may have agreed to a financial offer.
As a reminder, the 23-year-old Chechen woman had fled domestic violence and was receiving threats from compatriots. According to human rights activists who were assisting her, shortly before her death she met with a friend she had communicated with on Instagram — Karina Iminova.
As previously established, the alleged “spotter” not only had followers from Ramzan Kadyrov’s inner circle and traveled to Chechnya, but also lived for a long time with a native of Grozny. According to our information, she had been engaged in escort work for an extended period and took part in so-called “model parties” in the UAE.
Judging by Karina Iminova’s social media profiles, drug-related topics were not foreign to her. Her main “work” was also far from smooth. It turned out that she had recently been expelled from most escort groups where women like her seek well-paid clients and was blacklisted by pimps for a number of reasons.
The main obstacle to stable income was her failure to match the declared appearance. Karina Iminova added photos and videos to her profiles (we are publishing them) in which she looked, to put it mildly, very different from real life. As a result, complaints were received from the majority of clients.
Because of this, she lost her usual source of income and may have faced serious life difficulties. An escort worker left without earnings and with a child to support is an ideal target for manipulation — or for being offered an “easy job” in exchange for payment.
