The chief editor of the Russian Kuban state radio has been found dead from a suspected poisoning, it has been claimed. Zoya Konovalova, 48, who ran a channel operating near the frontlines of Mad Vlad's illegal war, was found alongside her ex-husband, writes the Kuban Journalists' Union on its Telegram channel, quoted by Kommersant.
The Kuban editor was found in her bedroom and her 52-year-old former husband Andrey Gubatiyka's corpse was found close by.
“No visible injuries were found during the examination of the bodies,” said a spokesman for the Russian Investigative Committee, which is probing the deaths.
The former couple shared a daughter, 15, and an adult son.
“The preliminary cause of death is poisoning by an unknown substance,” said a report by her own channel.
A fragment of a plastic bag with a "powdery substance" was reportedly found in the TV chief’s private house in Krasnodar city.
