THESE THINGS KEEP HAPPENING TO PUTIN’S CRITICS: Russian journalist critical of Vladimir Putin found dead on his birthday with gunshot wound to head.

Officials have speculated that his death was caused by suicide, after a gun was found near his body along with spent cartridges, and the door to his apartment was said to be locked.

Local news source Kyiv Operatyvni reported: “Alexander was sitting on a chair, with a gunshot wound to his head, the gun was lying under the chair. According to credible sources, the case has been classified as suicide, as Alexander sent an email to one of his loved ones where he said he wanted to kill himself.”

I’m skeptical.
