A FORMER beauty queen has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a horrific knife attack on a shopworker in Russia.

Natalya Dolganovskaya, 32, shouted about how she hates women before repeatedly stabbing the victim, a 36-year-old saleswoman, according to sources citing law officials.

The incident which was captured on CCTV shows Dolganovskaya launch the brutal attack at the fruit and veg section of a supermarket in Gulliver.

The attack was only stopped when another shopworker and a customer rushed to the woman’s aid.

The heroic worker managed to wrestle the knife out of Dolganovskaya’s hands after a scuffle on the floor, while the customer worked to stop the blood from flowing before the arrival of paramedics.

The victim is now in intensive care at a hospital recovering from her injuries.

She suffered seven serious wounds to her head, neck, face, hands and spine.

Amazingly, her injuries are said not to be life threatening.

A witness at the scene said Dolganovskaya suddenly ““suddenly went berserk in the supermarket”.

After running away from the scene, she was apprehended by the police and members of Russian’s Investigative Committee.

The former beauty queen was detained by police and members of Russia’s Investigative Committee after fleeing the scene. 

Dolganovskaya was crowned Miss Ulyanovsk in 2005 when she was 18.

She then married a local business tycoon and politician, but the marriage broke down six years later.

She continued working in a shop owned by her ex-husband but she while he had remarried, she struggled to put her life back together.

After she was arrested by authorities, her mother, Elenor Pimenova told NTV her daughter had confided in her saying: “I have a feeling that some demons have clung to me.”

The attack is being treated as unprovoked and random, according to officials.

“The Investigative Committee in Ulyanovsk region has opened a criminal case into the attempted murder of a resident of Ulyanovsk,” said a statement.

It also said investigators were looking to “establish all the circumstances of the incident”.

Police are set to conduct and examination into Dolganovskaya’s mental state.
