Question

I am Hungarian, my husband is Russian and we have been living in Switzerland for the last 11 years. We married some years ago in Hungaria. After our marriage, my husband had relations with a Russian woman on one of his business trips. The thing claimed that her bastard (born autumn 2000 somewhere in Russia) is from my husband. My question is can she sue him for fatherhood recognition or/and child support (alimony) and which law and court will apply then. In Switzerland is actually so, that the mother can sue a man for vaterhood recognition only within 1 year after the birth. Then, the bastard can sue him also within 1 year after his full age (18 I think). I do not know what says the Russian law about this matter. I will appreciate your advice very much. I do not want that my family (inclusive my husband) pay anything or hear anything about this story some time later. Or worst that my child (born 99) will be confronted some time later with all this. How can I prevent this?
