A SICK monster showed cops how he beat his four-year-old stepdaughter with a belt because she refused to count to five.

In a disturbing police video a 20-year-old man named as Bakhram demonstrates to Russian police how he whipped the daughter of his lover 15 times, leaving the defenceless child with horrendous injuries.

Horrifying photographs show the girl's body blanketed in bruises and cuts, with whip marks lacerating her head, back, chest, abdomen and arms.

The monster told how he hit her several times with the flex from his mobile phone.

In the sickening reconstruction, Bakhram said: “I took the wire and beat her like this.

“The child fell down here, on the bed, and I hit her ….15 times.”

He told police his girlfriend Maria had witnessed her child being beaten and said nothing.

Maria, 31, told police she was "too scared" to intervene, saying she feared he would beat her too.

Bakhram, originally from Azerbaijan, told police he was “educating” the battered girl and her six-year-old sister.

Police said he only abused the younger girl, beating her in the flat they shared with Maria's ex-husband Nikolai and another male lodger.

The girl was left trembling and had difficulty breathing after the brutal attack.

But the mother tried to treat the child without medical help, fearing her lover would be detained if she went to hospital.

Thankfully their lodger saw the girl's horrific condition and called the police and ambulance.

The girl is now recovering in hospital, where nurses said she can easily count from one to five but was so "scared" of her mum's boyfriend that she froze when he told her to do so.

Bakhram has been charged with child torture and faces up to seven years in jail.
