Russian Court Closes Website Advertising Assassinations
It is still uncertain whether any individuals were actually harmed or prosecuted in relation to this platform.
According to a news agency, the prohibited website allegedly offered staged deaths that appeared to be accidents – such as workplace mishaps or falls from elevated places – along with suicides and poisonings that could be interpreted as heart attacks.
The listed fees reportedly varied between 170,000 rubles (about $2,000) and 400,000 rubles (approximately $4,700).
The probe began after a military prosecutor found that “information about providing services for the killing of a person was freely available to an unlimited number of users.”
The Nikulinsky District Court in Moscow decided that the website hosted banned content explaining how to commission a murder, stressing that such details were accessible to the entire online audience, including underage users.
The court ruling stated: “Since the site in question freely provides materials on the possibility of offering services for the killing of a person, the court concludes that the information it contains is subject to recognition as prohibited for dissemination, as are actions related to publishing such information.”
