Russian Tycoon's Son Dies in Mysterious Car Accident

The son of Russian billionaire Mikhail Gutseriyev, died in a mysterious car accident says his family. Mikhail Gutseriyev who formerly headed the oil firm Russneft, left the company under government pressure to sell it to a Kremlin backed oligarch. The Russian goverment has accused him of tax evasion, and illegal business activities. In regards to selling the firm he accused the government of " unprecedented bullying". Later he rescinded that statement and said he was glad to sell it. The Russian newspaper Kommersant asked Moscow authorities about the crash but they had no records of a crash occurring.- Al Jazeera

It appears another mysterious accident faced a person who did not have a strong relationship with Putin's Kremlin. Russia seems to have quite a history of mysterious accidents in regards to people who did not agree with goverment policies, especially in Putin's Russia.
