The Telegraph/AP: Another ally of Ukraine ex-president Yanukovych found dead

Fourth friend and former colleague of Viktor Yanukovych dies in suspicious circumstances

A former Ukraine deputy was shot dead in Kiev on Wednesday, the fourth ally of ousted pro-Moscow ex-president Viktor Yanukovych to die in suspicious circumstances in the past two months.

The body of Oleg Kalashnikov was found at his home on Wednesday evening, the interior ministry said in a statement.

"Death was caused by gunshot," the statement added. A police inquiry has been opened.

WNU Editor: This is not the first time this has happened .... eight other allies of former Ukraine Presidnet Viktor Yanukovich have had sudden deaths in the last year. Pro-Russian or anti-Ukraine government journalists are also being targeted .... Two Journalists Reported Killed In Ukraine (Radio Free Europe). But these are the public and "well known" politicians and media personalities .... in the past few months I have been reading and hearing numerous reports of people who oppose the Ukraine government disappearing and/or being found dead. I also speculated about a month ago in this blog that I cannot help but feel that death squads are now operating in Ukraine that are targeting opponents to the government as well as those who support Russia .... these additional murders are now convincing that this is definitely  the case. Fortunately .... some in the international media are now taking notice.
