A total of 39 critics of President Putin have died mysteriously, so the head of Wagner should start to fear...
In Russia, in Europe and even in America there are so many sworn enemies of Vladimir Putin who have met a bad end. Unexplained accidents, attacks, suicides and even perfect murders.
The site Gbnews.com has calculated that since the start of the special military operation in Ukraine in February of last year, there have been 39 mysterious deaths of people related to the Russian president.
And now that the General Prosecutor's Office has announced that the criminal investigation against Prigozhin has not been closed, unlike what was rumored after Saturday's agreement, many think that the head of Wagner would do well to watch his back.
The last case of mysterious deaths was three months ago when oligarch Sergei Grishin died of septicemia in Moscow. He was famous for selling his California villa to Prince Harry and his wife Meghan. Not a very famous person, but still a former banker who had strongly criticized the work of the head of the Kremlin, as other entrepreneurs involved in strange murder-suicide chains along with the whole family are: Vasily Melnikov, Vladislav Avayev and Sergei Protosenya.
Far better known, and almost indisputably linked to the state apparatus, is the case of Aleksey Navalny, Putin's main political opponent, who was poisoned before going to a Siberian prison.
Another sensational case in which figures connected to the Russian secret services have used toxic materials (in this case radioactive) is that of Alexander Litvinenko, one of the first great assassinations, which took place in London in 2006. He was a former agent who deserted the Russian service. Two of his former colleagues served him a cup of polonium-laced tea in a Mayfair hotel. He died in hospital after a terrible agony.
In the same fall of 2006, journalist Anna Politkovskaya was shot dead while waiting for the elevator in her home. In fact, someone had previously tried to poison him on the plane, but failed.
Several exponents of human rights organizations were killed again with firearms, such as Natalia Estemirova, kidnapped and killed in 2009, lawyer Stanislav Markelov and journalist Anastasia Baburova, shot together in the same year. And Boris Nemtsov, a leading member of the opposition who was also deputy prime minister under Yeltsin, who was shot near the Kremlin in 2015.
There were also countless cases of accidents and all quite strange. Like the case of Mikhail Lesin, who had been the minister of information with Putin and who in 2015 was found dead in a hotel room in Washington.
The end has been fatal even for some critics of the Kremlin. The most famous, perhaps, are the former chairman of the oil company Lukoil, Ravil Maganov, and the billionaire Pavel Antonov, who both died last year after the Special Military Operation attack. Maganov fell from a hospital window in Moscow, while Antonov flew from a hotel window while in India to celebrate his birthday. therefore Prigozhin should be careful because he may have their fate. / Adapted "Pamphlet" from "Corriere Della Sera"
