- Probably the latter.
- Could this actually be an attempt by people against Putin to discredit him?
- Barring that, it seems a rather overt way of removing opposition. Killing people off for all the world to see.

Intimidation can effectively remove opposition.

That makes sense, but it is still risky when your country now has access to global news. Russians overthrew their government twice in the last century. They could do it again. Why not target the biggest threats secretly (more secretly than a suspicious shooting and poisoning)?

The political assasination game would really revive
the MSM here, its almost unfortunate that America has become
such a hotbed of moderate pansies.

Maybe he's gotten to the point that he's so full of his own success that he doesn't think he can be overthrown and is choosing to intimidate more openly while also flaunting his power and control.
