Vladimir Putin upgrades rank of Russian Penitentiary Service deputy head three days after Navalny’s death in prison

Vladimir Putin has decorated Valery Boyarinev, the deputy director of Russia’s Federal Penitentiary Service (FSIN), with the rank of colonel general. The accolade comes just days after opposition leader Alexey Navalny died in prison.

Putin rotting his own institutions again...

Gork,

They’re also stonewalling his relatives who are trying to claim his body for burial. It seems intentional, as if Putin wants to get across the idea that if you oppose him, you won’t only just die but your family won’t be able to see you one last time for burial.

DdCno1,

This isn’t even the worst Putin has done. He has not just had individual oligarchs, politicians and journalists killed, but also the families of some of his enemies as well. Here are two cases, but these are far from the only ones:

They tried to make it look like murder suicide in both cases, but it makes no sense in either case, there are lots of details off (almost to the point that it feels intentional) and the timing is extremely odd.

the timing is extremely odd

Right?

Not by Putin, but the most brutal I know in the history was for the previous Japanese Emperor in 1948. They executed A-class war criminals (his father's cronies) on his birthday. The most shocking part imo is that he was only becoming 15.

Killed acquaintances of a kid on his birthday omg...

ninjan,

They’re not much for subtlety over there huh?

MagicShel,

He can’t take a chance that someone would miss the message. It’s the same mobster tactics Trump uses. Rewards folks who, on their own initiative, do things you like. Punish those who don’t. Make it clear that your personal success depends on which side your bread is buttered.

tesseract,

Hmm. Reminds me of quasi dictators in India. I guess it’s a universal MO.
