Kashtim, Russia: Dead alien body recovered by police
On August 13, 1996, police officers entered a residence in Kashtim following reports from hospital staff. They discovered the remains of a small humanoid entity allegedly cared for by an elderly villager. The corpse was subsequently removed by state security personnel.
Background
According to claims by the Georgian UFO Association, an elderly woman discovered a small creature near Kashtim in the Ural Mountains during the summer of 1996. Believing it to be an abandoned infant, she transported the being to her residence and attempted to provide care for approximately two weeks. When she fell ill and required hospitalization, she revealed her secret to medical personnel, prompting law enforcement intervention.
On August 13, 1996, officers from the Kashtim Police Department located the deceased entity inside the woman's home. Investigators documented the scene using video equipment and conducted radiation measurements, which reportedly showed no anomalous readings. The remains measured approximately 21 centimeters in length. Shortly thereafter, agents from the Russian State Security service seized the body and all related evidence, effectively terminating the local inquiry.
The video documentation allegedly remains archived in Georgia, Russia, though independent verification of these events has not been established. The case represents one of several claims involving biological materials allegedly recovered by Soviet or Russian authorities during the 1990s.
