According to sources a 17 year old girl in Russia has been arrested on the charges of being the mastermind behind the infamous Blue Whale Challenge. Currently an unnamed Russian teenager has been accused of heading multiple groups operated under the name of Blue Whale Challenge.
Meanwhile reports say she is responsible for threatening multiple victims with death if they failed or refused to complete the tasks of the challenge, which end in suicide. Moreover the Russian state investigators said the girl, also known as the 'death group administrator', was originally a player of the Blue Whale Challenge. However, she did not finish the challenge all the way to suicide, and ended up becoming an 'admin' of the game instead.
According to sources the 17 year old girl has been accused of setting the
50 tasks of the Blue Whale Blue Whale Challenge to the victims, which 'create
psychologically traumatizing situations', and end with the victim committing
suicide. The girl was arrested from Russia's Khabarovsk Krai region. Earlier
the Blue Whale Challenge's creator, 22 year old Philipp Budeikin was arrested
in Russia earlier this year and sentenced to three years in prison. But despite
him being behind the bars, the challenge continued to claim lives across the
world.
