Moscow: Names a second suspect for the murder of Daria Dugina

by

Today the FSB announced that it has identified another member of the Ukrainian “terrorist and sabotage organization” that it claims orchestrated and carried out the assassination.

Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) today named another Ukrainian it says was part of the group that killed Daria Dugina, the daughter of a prominent Russian ultranationalist who advocates that Ukraine should be incorporated into a new Russian empire.

Dugina, who – like her father Alexander Dugin– was a staunch supporter of the “special military operation” in Ukraine, was killed when her car bomb exploded outside Moscow on August 20.

The Russian president Vladimir Putin called her murder a “despicable, brutal crime”.

Two days after the 29-year-old’s murder, the FSB announced it was cracking the case by naming a Ukrainian woman who – according to Russian intelligence – had been following the victim for weeks, rented an apartment in the apartment complex where the victim lived and planted the bomb. in the victim’s car before fleeing to Estonia.

According to the same source, the perpetrator had the support of Kyiv.

Ukraine, which maintains that Russia is waging an expansionist war, denies any involvement in the killing of Dugina, who has since been portrayed as a martyr by pro-government politicians and by Russian state television, where she appeared frequently as a commentator in favor of war.

Today the FSB announced that it has identified another member of the Ukrainian “terrorist and sabotage organization” that it claims orchestrated and carried out the assassination.

In a statement, the FSB notes that the new suspect — a man born in 1978, whom it has named and shown in CCTV footage — helped assemble the bomb inside a rented parking lot in Moscow and secured the fake documents and fake license plates for the woman who planted the bomb in Dugina’s car.

The man, according to Russian intelligence, fled Russia via Estonia on the eve of the attack.

An 11-minute security camera video released by the FSB shows the man entering Russia on July 30, driving in and out of parking lots in Moscow, picking up what the FSB says are fake license plates traffic and leaving Russia in the early hours of August 19, one day before Dugina’s murder.

Security camera footage also shows the Ukrainian woman, who is accused by the FSB of planting the car bomb, walking in the area where cars were parked at an event attended by Dugina shortly before she was killed.

The FSB claims that the Ukrainian watched Dugina, made sure she left the event, then followed her in her own car and detonated the bomb she had placed in the victim’s car.

At Dugina’s funeral in Moscow last week, her father, Alexander Dugin, said his daughter had fallen on the front line and called on Russia in her memory to ensure “victory” in Ukraine.
