Strange deaths of Russian oligarchs have been on the rise since the Ukraine war.
Now there is another case.
Mytishchi - The series of mysterious deaths among Russian oligarchs and top executives from the oil and gas industry continues.
Recent case: Alexander Subbotin.
The former board member of the oil company Lukoil is said to have died while visiting a healer couple in Mytishchi, northeast of Moscow.
This is reported by the Russian edition of the Mash portal, citing the police.
According to the report, the shaman Magua Subbotin administered the poison of a toad through a cut in the skin.
In addition, the former manager is said to have bathed in Hahnenblut.
The shaman and his wife reported to the police that he initially vomited.
The couple then gave the guest herbal drops and put him to sleep on a couch in the basement.
Subbotin then died.
He is said to have approached the healer for treatment of his alcohol addiction.
This is also reported by the Moscow Times.
Russia's oligarchs: Mysterious deaths are piling up
With Subbotin's death, a series of strange deaths among Russian top executives continues.
Several Russian oligarchs have died since the Ukraine conflict, some under very mysterious circumstances.
Sergei Protosenya, Vladislav Avayev and Vasily Melnikov are said to have killed not only themselves but also their families.
Businessmen Alexander Tyulyakov and Leonid Shulman also allegedly died by suicide.
Not long ago, a Russian oligarch attacked Vladimir Putin.

Alexander Subbotin's brother Valery Subbotin was last traded as the successor to Lukoil CEO Vagit Alekperov, writes the Moscow Times.
Alekperov resigned from his post in mid-April.
The EU had previously put him on a sanctions list.
Alekperov expressed his "concern" about the "tragic events" in Ukraine in early March.
He may have had to vacate his post because of his critical statements.
Until 2003, the Lukoil concern belonged to businessman Mikhail Khodorkovsky.
At the time, Russian President Vladimir Putin made an example of him: under the pretext of fraud and tax evasion, the Kremlin boss had Khodorkovsky imprisoned for ten years.
Today Khodorkovsky lives in London.
There are currently several rumors circulating about Vladimir Putin's health.
