Another Putin critic 'falls out a window' to his death: Sausage tycoon plummets from luxury hotel - two days after his male friend died of a 'heart attack' on their trip to India A Russian politician who previously criticised the war with Ukraine has died Reports suggest that Pavel Antov fell to his death while on holiday in India Antov was Russia's highest-earning official and an MP in the Vladimir region
Russia's 'highest-earning elected politician' who had criticised Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine has been found dead after a mysterious fall from a hotel in India.
Sausage multi-millionaire Pavel Antov, from the main pro-Putin party United Russia, had been on a trip to celebrate his upcoming 66th birthday.
A male friend in his party had died 'from a heart attack' on Thursday last week, and the wealthy politician perished two days later.
The married tycoon, an MP in the legislative assembly of the Vladimir region, was listed as Russia's highest-earning elected official in 2019.
The Russian Consul General in Kolkata Alexei Idamkin told TASS he 'fell' out of a hotel window in Rayagada, Odisha state.
In June, Antov criticised the war and air strikes on Kyiv as Russian 'terror' wounding Ukrainian civilians.
He highlighted a Russian missile strike and said: 'A girl has been pulled out from under the rubble, the girl's father appears to have died.
'The mother is trying to be pulled out with a crane - she is trapped under a slab. To tell the truth, it is extremely difficult to call this anything other than terror.'
He evidently then swiftly came under intense pressure after which he withdrew the comment and made a grovelling apology.
He made an about-turn and claimed his post on social media had been 'an unfortunate misunderstanding' and a 'technical error'.

To coin a phrase:
You can take the man out of the KGB but you can’t take the KGB out of the man.
China is buying up US land. Russia is killing the Oligarchy and US corporations are all going woke while our military hardware is being depleted with the war in Ukraine, Aka: The WEF Laundering Service.

Here in the US, no on blames Hillary.
Quite a few Russian business owners have been murdered or imprisoned to make way for the hybrid communism and fascism.
Abe Fromansky
Excellent!!!
If Pavel Antov didn’t support the Putin regime, he wasn’t an oligarch. Are American business owners murdered by the federal government for nothing more than voicing opposition against U.S. laws or policies? No, except in the minds of people who push the most insane conspiracy theories to support our foreign enemies.
Pavel Antov is described as a billionaire on the internet. This is enough wealth to qualify as a Russian oligarch. My opinion.
The Deep State’s “wet work team” is worldwide.
putin is evil
Putin must have read the Clintons instructions of how to rid yourself of critics.
Groannn…LOL
Bkmk
Another Russian death by natural causes. Because a man’s death is natural when it follows his murder.
Senators and presidents don't have men killed.
Vince Foster begs to differ
I thought of Abe immediately when I read the post title.
“I weep for the future!”
Antov’s wealth did give him some influence over government in the past, but his recent criticism against the invasion was canceled in a typically brutal way.
Compare these two definitions.

Russia has been moving towards communism again. Remember Mikhail Khodorkovsky?
