The pilot involved in the helicopter crash which killed one of Vladimir Putin's top prosecutors was found with two bullets in his body, it has been claimed today.
Deputy prosecutor-general Saak Karapetyan - a former MP and long-time ally of Putin - died Wednesday, died when his AS-350 helicopter came down in Kostroma region northeast of Moscow on Wednesday.
Karapetyan has been linked to Moscow's alleged offers of 'dirt' on Hillary Clinton to Donald Trump's election campaign via the glamorous lawyer who met with the Trump campaign in 2016. Natalia Veselnitskaya, 43, met with Donald Trump Jr, Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner in Trump Tower during the 2016 campaign.
Veselnitskaya led a pro-Moscow campaign to overturn anti-corruption laws imposing sanctions on key senior Russian officials and organisations.
The US Magnitsky Act, signed into law by then-President Barack Obama in 2012, authorizes the government to sanction Russian human rights offenders, freeze their assets, and ban them from entering the US. Source
