A Wagnerite pardoned by Putin stabbed to death the father of Patriarch Kirill's spokesman.
This was reported by journalist Denis Kazansky with reference to Russian tg-channels.
The body of Roman Legoyda, father of Vladimir Legoyda, head of the Russian Orthodox Church's press service, was found on the street in the Moscow region with multiple stab wounds.
The police detained the suspect - 25-year-old Adam Shcherbakov. Earlier he joined the PMC "Wagner" and received amnesty.
I showed him the knife and said: give me money. We started to fight, he tried to snatch the knife from me. And that was it, I killed him," Shcherbakov told the police.
After refusing to give the money and a struggle ensued, the perpetrator stabbed Roman Legoyda about 20 times, stole 100,000 roubles and fled.
The murderer was caught on a hot trail a few hours later. He could face up to 20 years in prison for murder and robbery.
Russian media also report that Adam Shcherbakov was previously sentenced to 9 years for robbery. It is also alleged that Shcherbakov had previously deserted from the front.
We shall remind you that Vladimir Legoyda, chairman of the Moscow Patriarchate's synodal department for relations between the church and society and mass media, has repeatedly expressed support for the war in Ukraine.
