MORE DEATHS:
At the time Nekrasov was Lukoil’s vice president, and had previously been awarded the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, 4th degree.
Nekrasov, who held two separate EU passports, for Austria and the Czech Republic, as well as his Russian citizenship, avoided sanctions by the West over the war.
There has been a spate of deaths of prominent Russians linked to the energy and finance sectors since the start of Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine.
Among other cases, in April wealthy Vladislav Avayev, 51, a former Kremlin official, appeared to have taken his own life after killing his wife Yelena, 47, and daughter, 13.
He had high-level links to the Russian financial institution Gazprombank.
Friends have disputed reports that he was jealous after his wife admitted she was pregnant by their driver.
There are claims he had access to the financial secrets of the Kremlin elite.
Several days later multi-millionaire Sergey Protosenya, 55, was found hanged in Spain after allegedly killing his wife Natalia, 53, and their teenage daughter, Maria, with an axe in a grisly murder-suicide.
He was a former deputy chairman of Novatek, a company also closely linked to the Kremlin.
As with Avayev, it is suggested this may have been an assassination made to appear like a murder-suicide.
Yevgeny Palant, 47, a mobile phone multi-millionaire, and his wife Olga, 50, both Ukrainian-born, were found with multiple knife wounds by their daughter Polina, 20.
I must have missed that part about Christians like Putin (ha!) being permitted to kill people at will. Was that in the Sermon on the Mount? Maybe it’s a Russian Orthodox thing.
Putin has the Cross in his hand and the devil in his heart.
Keep your thoughts to yourself and live a long life.
