A Russian businessman, Alex Konanykhin, has placed a $1 million bounty for any one who will arrest Vladimir Putin.
Konanykhin made this known in a post on Facebook and LinkedIn.
He wrote on the Facebook post, calling on Russian military officers to arrest Putin as a war criminal.
“I promise to pay $1,000,000 to the officer(s) who, complying with their constitutional duty, arrest(s) Putin as a war criminal under Russian and international laws,” Konanykhin says.
“Putin is not the Russian president as he came to power as the result of a special operation of blowing up apartment buildings in Russia, then violated the Constitution by eliminating free elections and murdering his opponents.
“As an ethnic Russian and a Russia citizen, I see it as my moral duty to facilitate the denazification of Russia. I will continue my assistance to Ukraine in its heroic efforts to withstand the onslaught of Putin’s Orda”.
The business man later denied placing the bounty on Putin’s life. He said all he wanted was justice.
“Some reports suggest that I promised to pay for the assassination of Putin. It is NOT correct. While such an outcome would be cheered by millions of people around the world, I believe that Putin must be brought to justice” he said.
