Russian Businessman Found Dead After Being Named in Epstein Files
ODD TIMINGUmar Dzhabrailov had relationships with Ghislaine Maxwell and Sean Diddy Combs.
A Russian businessman and former politician was found dead in a luxury Moscow apartment on Monday morning, just weeks after his name appeared in the Epstein files.
Police found Umar Dzhabrailov, a businessman and former senator, lying in a pool of blood with a gunshot wound to his head around 3 a.m., Russian outlet Kommersant reported.
Dzhabrailov, 67, was found with a Luger pistol near his body, and police sources called the incident a suspected suicide. Sources said he did not leave a note, but had recorded several video comments about the events in Iran shortly before his death.
The former Chechen representative to the Federation Council of Russia sent an email to convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell in May 2001, as seen in a government file.
