Friend says actor Alexei Devotchenko was murdered but investigators say there was no sign of violence

Alexei Devotchenko, an actor and outspoken critic of the president Vladimir Putin, was found dead in his Moscow apartment on Wednesday evening.

The circumstances of his death were not immediately clear, but investigators told Russian news agencies that there were no signs of a violent death and that an autopsy was being carried out.

Fellow actor Stanislav Sadalsky wrote on his blog that, according to his information, Devotchenko had been murdered.

As well as taking part in dozens of anti-Kremlin protests over the past decade, Devotchenko, 49, had spoken out in defence of gay people facing increasing discrimination and criticised Moscow’s support for separatists in eastern Ukraine, praising protesters in Kiev seeking closer ties with the EU.

~Devotchenko, 49, had spoken out in defence of gay people ~

Well, Putin is a STRONG leader, according to his admirers. He’s to be respected, we’re frequently reminded.

“Putin’s Kiss” is a documentary on Netflix about activists in Putin’s Russia. This might be of interest.
