Russian journalist, Putin critic dies of injuries after mysterious attack

[techbeck]

A prominent Russian journalist – who was also a prominent critic of Russian president Vladimir Putin – died Wednesday from injuries sustained during a mysterious attack six weeks ago in St. Petersburg.

 

Nikolai Andrushchenko’s death was reported by Russian media outlets that cited his lawyer and the editor-in-chief of the Novy Peterburg newspaper. State news agency RIA Novosti reported Andrushchenko, 73, had been in a medically induced coma since the March 9 attack.

 

Andrushchenko's attackers have not been identified. The editor of RIA Novosti has linked the assault to articles in the newspaper about corruption in St. Petersburg.

Putin critics are actually getting paid to take part in the talk shows on the Russian state-TV during the prime time.

 

This is ridiculous. Why pay them sums of money if putting a bullet in the head is so much cheaper!

 

Honestly, this guy wasn't famous at all. There are a lot more prominent Putin critics still alive in Russia. 

 

Chances are this guy had revealed some St. Petersburg's criminals' secrets and was killed by a gang.

 

However, inserting "Putin critic" inside a headline yields more clicks.
