The death of the fiercest Russian assassin
One of the most notorious Russian killers involved in the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko died of cancer. This was reported by Russia. Dmitry Kovtun, one of the two who poisoned the Russian dissident with radioactive polonium in London in 2006, passed away three years ago without receiving just punishment. Kovtun's death at the age of 56 was initially attributed to...'...the anticipated consequences of his actions.'Kovtun's death evokes mixed feelings, as he escaped punishment for his crimes. The Litvinenko case, which drew international attention, highlights the seriousness of the issue of impunity in such cases. These events serve as a reminder of the consequences of brutal methods and political repression.
