Konstantine Strukov, a Russian Gold Billionaire stopped from fleeing Russia.
Putin stabs one of his loyal followers in the back as he tries to nationalise companies in a power/resource procurement bid.
Minister of transport, Romain Starovoit gets fired as a scapegoat for the chaos in Russian aviation amidst Ukrainian drone strikes affecting domestic flights and infrastructure.
Romain Starovoit found dead just hours after being fired by Putin.
A Russian gold mining tycoon was blocked from leaving the country over the weekend as authorities moved to nationalize his company and investigate alleged corruption and financial misconduct.
Konstantin Strukov, the CEO of Russia’s third-largest gold producer Yuzhuralzoloto, was reportedly preparing to fly from the Chelyabinsk region to Turkey on Saturday aboard his private $50 million Bombardier jet when federal aviation authorities halted his departure, the Kommersant business daily reported.
Footage published by Kommersant shows Strukov sitting in the cabin of the grounded aircraft as several security officials stand nearby.
Russia’s federal aviation agency, Rosaviatsia, cancelled the flight at the last minute, citing the aircraft’s "arrested" legal status.
Bailiffs subsequently boarded the plane and confiscated Strukov’s international passport, which officials from the Interior Ministry had already voided.

Although, much as Russia has a "reputation", there were corruption (embezzlement) allegations against him being investigated and those were in relation to a lot of money allocated to securing Russia/Ukraine border (in the region he was governing at the time). So one could envisage circumstances where, innocent or guilty, he knew the outcome and what that would mean for him and his family?
