Roman Starovoyt, the Russian Minister of Transport, was dismissed yesterday and found dead in his car hours later.
He died from a gunshot wound and a pistol previously awarded to him by the Ministry of Internal Affairs was found in the car. His death is being reported as a suicide.
Before becoming Minister of Transport in May 2024 Starovoyt was the governor of Kursk. His successor was arrested in April as part of an investigation into the embezzlement of funds to be used to fortify the Ukrainian border. It's being implied that his dismissal and subsequent suicide were related to his time as governor of Kursk.
According to 6th tone this is something that happens. The production, dissemination and sale of "sexual, pornographic and obscene materials" is illegal in China and this is disproportionately heavily enforced against people writing gay erotic fiction.
In 2018 a popular online gay erotica author was sentenced to 10 years imprisonment for "producing pornographic and obscene materials", in 2015 another was sentenced to 3 years imprisonment
Because 3,402% isn't quite enough but 3,404% would be going too far.
Everyone loves getting robocalled.
This is going to flip so many votes!
