The passengers of Prigozhin’s plane are two of his closest associates and veterans of the Syrian Wagner campaign

The Federal Air Transport Agency has published a list of passengers who were allegedly on board the crashed plane of Yevgeny Prigozhin . We found out who they were.

✈️ Valery Chekalov is one of the Concorde managers closest to Prigogine. He oversaw all of Prigozhin's "civilian" projects abroad and was responsible for the logistical support of the Wagner group. It was Chekalov who headed JSC Neva, the founder of Euro Polis LLC, to which all Syrian and African projects were tied

✈️ Dmitry Utkin . Prigozhin's right hand in the Wagner PMC. Responsible for command and combat training.

✈️ Yevgeny Makaryan , call sign "Makar". Former precinct. He joined Wagner in March 2016 . He was part of the fourth Wagner assault detachment in Syria, which came under fire from American aircraft near Khsham in January 2017.

✈️ Sergey Propustin , call sign "Kedr", ensign. He joined Wagner in March 2015. He fought in the second reconnaissance and assault detachment. Prigozhin recruited many personal guards from there.

✈️ Alexander Totmin , callsign "Tot".

✈️ Nikolai Matuseev . We could not find a person with that name on the Wagner lists. But there is Nikolai Matusevich . At Wagner since January 2017. He served as a shooter in the fourth assault detachment in Syria.

Meanwhile, Prigozhin's wife Lyubov continues her long-planned vacation in India , says a Dossier source familiar with the family.

We do not know whether the information about the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin and Dmitry Utkin can be trusted. But if it is confirmed, it will mean that fewer and fewer people remain alive who are familiar with the circumstances of the murder of Russian journalists in the Central African Republic in 2019. We appeal to the employees of Prigozhin's "Company": if you know any details of the crime in the Central African Republic, contact the "Dossier" Center and tell your story. We will not be in debt.

I very much doubt that the people on the private plane with that guy were chosen completely at random.

There's a difference between a Mafia boss and his limo driver. Maybe they aren't scott free but they aren't the ones murdering people.

5 of the people listed including Prigozhin were literally responsible for helping in killing, with one of them being his right hand man.

Allegedly, of course. The pilots were maybe the limo driver, but the whole mafia was sitting in back.

The whole Mafia could literally be arrested/assassinated at any time. Putin has thousands of thugs that he could devote to taking out every last Wagner leader if he wanted to. Or just flat out arrest them for bullshit charges and kill them in jail etc. This wasn't some once in a lifetime opportunity.

Instead we have 3 crew members of a commercial airplane, who could've been any "random civilians", and potentially another family or 2 if that plane crashed into a house/market/etc.

I'm not expressing surprise that "of course" Putin takes this callous and expedient approach, because that's who he is. It's just an observation of a sad reality.

You have to remember that Putin is trying to play the media fiddle.

He could probably get away with assassination of his biggest threats, but that wouldn't be media friendly.

Everyone assumes Putin shot the plane down, but there is no conclusive evidence, so he is still not the bad guy.

The plane he was on was a civilian travel plane, but it is also not a public airliner. The people on board were all very likely aware of the dangers of being transported with the Russian leader's most recent mutiny subject on board.

To assume they just boarded a plane randomly is a big stretch. That's like saying you hopped on Taylor Swifts airplane and didn't realize she was on it.

Putin is way more willing to put the lives of his own people at risk to portray a certain picture to the global media. Which yes, I agree is a sad reality.
