The liquidation of field commander Arsen Pavlov, nicknamed "Motorola", did not go without Vladislav Surkov, the then adviser of Vladimir Putin, who was in charge of the Donbas occupation. This statement was made by Russian saboteur Igor Girkin (Strelkov) in one of the video interviews.
He told that according to his information, "Motorola" was blown up in an elevator, where three powerful explosive devices were professionally planted.
"Three explosions left not the slightest chance to survive for those who were in the elevator", - Girkin noted.
According to him, exactly one day before the death of the field commander of the "DNR" illegal armed formation, the guard post at the entrance where he lived was removed.
The "elevator experts" came on the same day and began to "check" the elevator.
"Therefore, I will not maintain whether the Ukrainian saboteurs are involved or not, but the fact that those who are called "ours" are definitely involved in this", - the Russian saboteur and mercenary asserts.
"Not only were those people who were in Kyiv interested in this, but certainly, those who were in Donetsk", - he stated.
"I remind you that it was Vladislav Surkov who supervised the Ukrainian line at that time. His hand was in play 100%... including the murder of Mozgovoi and the rest of the majority of field commanders", - Girkin unambiguously accused the Russian side of the high profile killing of the "DNR/LNR" leaders.
