AN EVIL father who beat and tortured his three-year-old son to death will be shot in the back of the head as punishment.<\/p>\n

The young boy looked "like a skeleton" at 15lbs when he died in January after his father kicked him in the head.<\/p>\n

A heartbreaking picture on the boy's gravestone showed him with an injured nose from a wound inflicted by his parents.<\/p>\n

Alexander Taratuta, 48, was sentenced to death for the brutal torture and murder of his son Semyon.<\/p>\n

He will be shot in the back of the head in Belarus, the only country in Europe to carry out capital punishment.<\/p>\n

His wife Anastasia Taratuta, 37, was sentenced to 25 years in a strict regime penal colony for the murder of their child Semyon.<\/p>\n

The death penalty – by a state executioner – is not\u00a0allowed\u00a0for women in Belarus.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Both \u201ccalmly listened to their sentences\u201d while handcuffed in a glass court cage, reported Sputnik media.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The father constantly looked away from the camera as a judge handed down the\u00a0verdict, while the mother was seen holding her hands over her face in the dock\u00a0as he was condemned to death.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A court was told how the\u00a0"wealthy"\u00a0couple inflicted a life of \u201cpure hell\u201d on the boy.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

He was forced to sleep<\/span> on bare linoleum and was often numb from the cold at their privately-owned home in Slutsk, 65 miles south of capital Minsk.<\/p>\n

His mother – a Russian citizen – regularly punched\u00a0Semyon in the face, threw him at her husband\u00a0or at the wall. She also dropped him into the bath.<\/p>\n

The three-year-old was tied to a table leg, and at other times, his hands were tethered and food was dangled in front of his face.<\/p>\n

Semyon was starved\u00a0over a long period, weighing only 15lbs at the age of three when he died.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis parents, instead of watching over him, simply insulted, humiliated and beat him,\u201d said one court report.<\/p>\n

The father denied cruelty, claiming he wanted to \u201ceducate\u201d his son.<\/p>\n

As \u201cpunishment\u201d for soiling the floor, the terrified boy was put in the bath and objects were thrown at him.<\/p>\n

He eventually died on January 4 this year after his father kicked him in the head \u201cto make him sit on the floor\u201d.<\/p>\n

The child\u00a0fell,\u00a0\u201cshowing no signs of life\u201d.<\/p>\n

A post mortem found Semyon had eight other serious wounds inflicted by his parents.<\/p>\n

A paramedic doctor who<\/span> confirmed Semyon\u2019s death, said: \u201cThe boy was very thin, like a skeleton, covered in skin, looking like an African child with a big belly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was an abrasion on his head and a piece of hair<\/span> was missing.\u201d<\/p>\n

The child\u2019s eye socket was \u201ctorn almost to the temple\u201d.<\/p>\n

The couple shared two other children, both daughters, now aged four\u00a0and one, and Anastasia had custody of the elder of two sons, 14 and 12,\u00a0from a previous relationship.<\/p>\n

All are now in care and formal legal procedures are underway to deprive the couple of their parental rights.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anastasia has two older children, but the horrific child abuse was reserved for Semyon.<\/p>\n

Social services chief Galina Shaduro said the family was \u201cwealthy\u201d.<\/p>\n

Both parents saw their elder daughter as a \u201cprincess\u201d, while the youngest was also doted on.<\/p>\n

After Semyon died, mother Anastasia went to a shop and bought lollipops for her two other young children.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Belarus general prosecutor said the couple were motivated by \u201cpersonal hostility\u201d against the boy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They aimed to kill him, said the office<\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the basis of personal hostility towards their obviously young son Semyon, with the aim of murder, they struck him in the presence of his younger brother with\u00a0… hands and feet at least nine times, seven of which were to the head.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe defendants were aware that by inflicting multiple blows on the boy with significant force, including with booted feet, on the head, torso and limbs, they were causing his son prolonged physical pain, special torture and suffering.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his \u201clast word\u201d to the court, Taratuta, a Belarus citizen who earlier worked at a clothing factory, said he regretted that his life \u201cturned out this way\u201d.<\/p>\n

He \u201cfelt sorry that the last strike"\u00a0on\u00a0his\u00a0son was\u00a0"too strong\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were no intentions, no conspiracies. I didn\u2019t want to kill, there were no such thoughts,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

His wife was condemned in one court report as a \u201ccheap actress who pretended to be a heartbroken mother during the final court session\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She had written a final speech to the court, but refused to read it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The father can appeal his sentence from Death Row and seek a pardon from Belarus dictator Alexander Lukashenko, but such moves seldom change count decisions on executions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
