Vladimir Pribylovsky had co-written a number of books, none of them with titles that particularly flattered Russian President Vladimir Putin. "The Putin Corporation: The Story of Russia's Secret Takeover" was one. Another was "The Age of Assassins: The Rise and Rise of Vladimir Putin: How Scary Are Russia's New Rulers?" Now, Pribylovsky has been found dead in Moscow at the age of 59, and the cause of his death remains unclear.
Pribylovsky was found dead in his apartment, his colleague and sometimes co-author Yury Felshtinsky wrote on Facebook, Radio Free Europe reported Wednesday. Russian officials had not commented on the reported death, and Felshtinsky said he had "no further information at this point."

WNU Editor: According to his family .... it looks like he died from complications of diabetes. But his death has sparked a lot of speculation that he was murdered for all the corruption exposes that he has done over the years of Putin and his allies. What also does not help the situation is that a day before his dead body was discovered, Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov was advocating the trial and imprisonment of critics of the Russian government .... ‘Traitors’: Kadyrov blasts non-system opposition for servicing foreign interests (RT).
