According to the information disseminated by Russian publics, one of the versions of the investigation into the crash of the plane Prigozhin was on is the possible use of an explosive device placed in the landing gear compartment.
According to unverified information, it is assumed that the explosion occurred in the landing gear area. The explosion caused a wing to tear off and hit the stabilizer, which in turn led to a sharp change in the height of the business jet. As a result, the airplane entered a stall.
The fact that the tail section of the aircraft fell within five kilometers of the body also confirms this version.
It is reported that as a result of the explosive decompression, all passengers and crew members instantly lost consciousness, and thus the pilots were unable to send a signal about the emergency.
RosMedia also reports that Prigozhin's body is already at the Bureau of Forensic Medicine.
It is important to note that Russian Telegram channels are spreading a version of the first suspect. According to sources, it was his personal pilot, Artem Stepanov. He is also the former founder of the MNT Aero company, which owns the crashed jet.
According to reports, Stepanov had access to the plane and traveled to Kamchatka before the explosion. His whereabouts are currently unknown. Law enforcement authorities have been unable to locate him, and his brother reported that he has been hiking for three days and has not been contacted.
