    What a silly thing to need to confirm. Why on Earth would he fake his death?

      To avoid being murdered for being against Putin, probably.

      Nobody who’s not a total piece of shit and/or related to him is going to miss that neonazi, but let’s not pretend that his death was accidental or even overzealous punishment for his many ACTUAL crimes.

        Oh no, I don’t think his death was accidental. I think it was 100% on Putin’s orders.

      Maybe to prevent further assassination attempts from Russia? The simple fact that his plane got shot down is proof that he had a reasonable motive to fake his death.

      In hindsight this is exactly what he should’ve done based on public information.

        I guess. It seems to me like Putin giving his family his condolences was confirmation.

      It’s mutually beneficial for him and Putin.
