As the source said, the examination showed that on the eve of the tragedy, on July 21, Anton Cherepennikov received a very painful fracture. It was later established that he went to a private clinic, where he was given an x-ray, which revealed a fracture. The businessman was warned about the danger of a fracture, as the situation required surgical intervention.
Despite this, Anton Cherepennikov was in the break room in his office until 3 am the next day. According to the testimony of security guard Cherepennikov, the chief, under the supervision of a personal doctor, decided to use a certain gas from a cylinder and during the procedure began to suffocate and died.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs officers who arrived at the scene noticed that everything around was clean. The owner of the office no longer showed signs of life. As we wrote earlier, there were two men in the room: an old friend who identified himself as a personal doctor and a personal bodyguard. According to them, the boss was not sick and did not take any medications. There were no signs of torture, no noisy party in the office, only a few cigarette butts lay lonely in the ashtray.
In addition, a reusable gas cylinder marked “oxygen” was seized from the scene. Moreover, visually it differed from standard black xenon cylinders. As previously reported by the Cheka-OGPU, Anton Cherepennikov underwent a xenon therapy session. The version currently being considered is that a blood clot formed during Cherepennikov’s fracture, and during the procedure it broke off and led to suffocation.
At the same time, it is being clarified under what circumstances Cherepennikov received the fracture.
