Moscow: Anna Tsareva, the deputy editor of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “favorite newspaper”, was found dead in her home under mysterious circumstances. Anna Tsareva, 35, worked for the pro-Putin newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda. According to media reports, she was found unconscious in her Moscow home just a year after her former boss also died suspiciously, several media reports claim.

Notably, Tsareva’s body was discovered by her father after he lost contact with her for a few days and went to check on her. It was reported that there was no evidence of a forced entry into her apartment, nor any ‘signs of a violent death’, but that she had developed an acute respiratory viral infection and had been running a high fever for several days.

Notably, Tsareva was in charge of the content on the website of Komsomolskaya Pravda, the largest news website in Russia with 83.9 million readers as of October 2023.

Before this incident, her boss Vladimir Sungorkin, 68, editor-in-chief and director general of Komsomolskaya Pravda, also died of an apparent heart attack and his death was considered suspicious after medics found signs of asphyxiation. .

Sungorkin was accused of “spreading and legitimizing aggressive anti-Ukrainian and anti-Western propaganda of the Putin regime under the direct authority of the Kremlin in one of Russia’s most popular media outlets.”
