Sources of the Cheka-OGPU noted several oddities of the disaster with Prigozhin and his entourage. Firstly, washes from things and debris made directly at the crash site did not reveal the presence of any explosives at all. It is worth noting that this research method has low sensitivity, so explosives are not always detected. Or the bomb could have been low-yield. The source does not know whether traces of explosives were discovered during more detailed examinations.

Also, relatives of Prigozhin’s guards tell a strange thing – all of their mobile phones turned off at once. Prigozhin never forbade his bodyguards to correspond with their wives and girlfriends during the flight, and they willingly took advantage of this. As the Cheka-OGPU already said, they usually corresponded with loved ones directly from the jet, they could send photos. At the same time, Alexander Totmin asked his wife about his affairs and she sent him a response message minute by minute. However, the subscriber did not read the message and suddenly disappeared from communication at 17.38. How they cut it off. Almost simultaneously, Makaryan and Matuseev also abruptly disappeared from communication

“I’ve been with my husband for 10 years…. Whenever he had the opportunity, he did not break the connection. My favorite phrase was “gone, don’t lose me,” it meant goodbye. He could have written that he was going on a plane or that the battery was running low,” one of the widows told the Cheka-OGPU.

What happened just before takeoff (less than half an hour after that the plane began to fall), that the guards abruptly “left” communication is unknown.
