  • Yet Another Russian Oligarch Dies 'Mysteriously' After Criticizing Ukraine War

    In the same hotel that a few days before a friend of his 'mysteriously' died.

    Those russians must be super clumsy, all this falling out of balconies to their deaths. It'as a wonder they have managed to survive all this time as a country.

    A Russian sausage magnate who briefly criticised Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has died after falling from the third-floor window of a luxury hotel in India.

    Pavel Antov was a member of Vladimir Putin’s United Russia Party and a multi-millionaire, having founded one of the country’s largest sausage makers. He was reportedly on a trip to celebrate his upcoming 66th birthday when he was found lying in a pool of blood outside the Hotel Sai International in Rayagada, in the southern state of Odisha.

    An unnamed police official told India’s NDTV news outlet they suspected that he took his own life after becoming depressed about the death of his friend, who was found dead in the same hotel.

    Vladimir Bidenov was found unconscious in his hotel room on Thursday, surrounded by empty wine bottles.


    Antov was the founder of Vladimir Standard, a major meat producer, and had a declared annual income of just under £130 million ($232 million).

    In July, he posted a story on his WhatsApp messaging app, criticising Russia’s missile attacks on Kyiv as “terrorism”. He was referring to reports of a girl that had been pulled from rubble after her house had been shelled.

    Shortly afterwards, Antov apologised for the post and said it had been posted by someone else. He said he was “a supporter of the president and my country’s patriot” and “shared the goals” of the Kremlin’s invasion.

    Alexei Idamkin, Russia’s consul general in Calcutta, told the Tass news agency that there was no foul play in the lawmaker’s death.
    Uh-huh, no foul play to see here, nosiree.

    Here's a nice long list of people who totally weren't killed by Putin and his thugs. And that's just from the last year alone.

    This getting to be like a dog bites man story.


    I suggest that they studiously avoid buildings with anything higher than a ground floor.

    I'm always still in trouble again

      Putin thinks that no one will suspect foul play so long as Novichuk isn't present.

        Hey, there's a war going on. Budgets are tight and defenestration um, tragic accidents are free.

          Hmm ... so much for high-rise buildings.

          Gravity is their enemy.

              Going over the balcony is Putin’s signature. He wants the others to be afraid. Fear is the point.

                Oh, I noticed your post. I just thought they were all sent over balconies, not indoor gymnastics.

                  As horrific as this story is, there's something oddly humorous about the phrase "Russian sausage magnate".

                    In other words his "friend" was murdered also.

                    Are the Russians related to Killary?

                      I wonder what percentage of people pick death by falling down a flight of stairs as a way to commit suicide. I imagine its incredibly small.

                              I just sent a memo to the boffins in roguetech R&D to start designing suits with built in concealed parachutes for the Russian market.
