(Then)
Denis Voronenkov
(Today: Gunned Down in Kiev, Ukraine)
The good news (if anything is
good in this tragedy) is that the suspect assassin was wounded and is in
custody in a hospital in Kiev under heavy guard (see below).
The whole story is from here (the Daily Beast).
In the past three years of
Ukraine’s conflict with Russia, news about assassinations in Ukraine has not
been rare. Among the mysterious murders were the assassination of noted
journalist Pavel Sheremet — blown up in his car near Kiev’s opera house — and the murder of a well-respected
attorney, Yury Grabovsky. But
this time Ukrainian investigators may have a much better idea who the murderer
was: at 3 p.m. local time, the wounded assassin of Voronenkov was at Kiev’s hospital
#17.
Officially, Moscow
immediately insisted that it had nothing to do with the murder. President
Vladimir Putin’s ruling party United Russia declared that Voronenkov’s
assassination was an internal issue for Ukraine.
The Putin two-step in high gear, just ask Gomer Pyle:
