Four of them are oligarchs, two more are representatives of Gazprom’s top management. Their deaths are still shrouded in mystery.
This year, six Kremlin -associated oligarchs died under mysterious circumstances. Four of them worked for the state energy company Gazprom, which financed the war in Ukraine. This was reported by the British edition of the Daily Mail on April 30.
The suspicious wave of killings began on January 30, when Gazprom employee Lev Shulman was found hanging from his home near St. Louis. Petersburg. Alexander Tyulakov, the deceased deputy director of Gazprom, also lives in the same residential complex. He was found hanged less than a month after Shulman’s death in the same apartment complex.
Billionaire Sergei Protosenya was found hanging in the garden of a Spanish holiday home with his wife and daughter chopped to death with an ax. His son Fedor told MailOnline that his father could not kill his own family.
Gazprombank Vice President Vladislav Avaev was found dead with his wife and daughter in their apartment in Moscow. According to Russian reports, the gas chief shot and killed his family before pointing the gun at himself. He allegedly tortured his wife for several hours. But Avaev’s former colleague Igor Volobuev said the suicide was “unbelievable” and said it was staged.
Medical tycoon Vasily Melnikov has died in an alleged homicide-suicide with his wife and children. The 43-year-old billionaire is believed to have killed his 41-year-old wife and two children, ages ten and four, before taking his own life.
The latest was Mikhail Watford, a Ukrainian-born gas tycoon who, shortly before his death, confessed to friends that he feared Putin’s hit list, “that he himself was within two years.” He was found hanging on his £ 18m estate in Surrey.
Recall that earlier the assets of the Cypriot companies of the Russian oligarch, estimated at almost half a billion hryvnias, were taken.
