Evgeny Prigozhin, the creator of PMC Wagner, at 1 time considered 1 of Putin's close confidants, after his “march of justice” on Moscow, became the most celebrated “enfant terrible” of modern Russia. His activities and public statements began to origin fury and embarrassment to the Kremlin administration and especially the peculiar services. Despite Putin calling him a traitor, the investigation launched against him was abruptly dropped and the seized property returned to him. His “defiance” emboldened the Russian safety apparatus, which showed utter helplessness and indolence. Many commentators were convinced that his days are numbered and it remains a substance of time erstwhile he will be taken down. Hence, the death of both him and his and his closest associates provokes much comment and speculation.
