Plane crash accidents are not a foreign concept, and everyone knows how drastic it is. But, it is known too that rumors travel faster than these planes. In recent days one such speculation has been made with the alleged plane crash involving Yevgeny Prigozhin, a Russian businessman and the owner of the Wagner Group.
The group is infamously known for their controversial ties to various global conflicts. All the initial reports created confusion in the world regarding the news. It somehow made it necessary to rely on verified sources and information to understand the true nature of the situation. The accident is rumored to be related to either Russia or Ukraine’s involvement.
But what is the truth behind this mystery? Can it be concluded that Prigozhin was on the plane or is it misinformation? It is an intriguing fact to check as Putin is famous for treating his enemies with such accidents. Prigozhin was the one who trolled Putin over their system and doings. Could this trigger the leader to cause such an accident?
On August 24, it was reported that the plane carrying Yevgeny Prigozhin crashed in the evening of Wednesday. The plane crashed in Moscow with no survivors. It is also reported that the Russian army quoted those two months to the day after he led an abortive mutiny against the army’s top brass.
Who Is Yevgeny Prigozhin and the Controversies of Warner Group?
Yevgeny Prigozhin was a Russian entrepreneur who turned his “hot-dog food business” into a “multi-millionaire empire.” He was known for his involvement in various business ventures, including catering, media, and private military contracting. He was once referred to as Putin’s Chef as he was granted multi-million-dollar contracts by the President himself.
Prigozhin then associated himself with the Wagner Group, a paramilitary organization that has reportedly been involved in conflicts such as Ukraine and Syria. From here, Prigozhin was regarded as the mercenary group leader along with the Wagner founder Dimitry Utkin.
The organization is famous for its alleged role in conflicts like the annexation of Crimea and the Syrian civil war. Despite its denials of direct involvement, the group’s actions have raised questions about the extent of its connections to the Russian government. However, the later comments of Yevgeny on Putin caused a rift between the two ends. Therefore, it is said to be the alleged reason for the crash.
The Explained Scenario of Wagner Chief Prigozhin Plane Crash
The plane was set to reach its destination from Moscow to St. Petersburg. St. Petersburg is the hometown of the Wagner Chief, making sense to the public to believe in the news. The plane departed with 10 people on it as is said to be the private jet of Prigozhin.
Amidst all the 10 passengers, two very well-known names surfaced in the news headlines, The leader and founder duo. According to the reports, both Yevgeny Prigozhin and Dimitry Utkin were found on the plane that crashed. Meaning both the senior elites of the groups are dead now. Yet, few reports are saying that the identification is yet to be confirmed.
“Wagner-linked Telegram channel Grey Zone reported the Embraer aircraft was shot down by air defences in the Tver region, north of Moscow,” BBC reported. “The jet, which was flying from Moscow to St Petersburg, was carrying seven passengers and three crew,” added BBC in the breaking report.
The president of Russia has said to be the enemy that never gives another chance to its prey. It is said that the president created a fake sense of security around the two senior ex-confidants. This helped them to move from place to place.
Later on, they were chased down. It is widespread news that the newest enemies of Putin are dead, as the crash is too real to deny.
