Back From the Dead? Prigozhin’s Escape Ignites Wildfire of Conspiracy

"Due to his extravagant past, ex-Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin might not have been on that ill-fated plane crash back in August, with many Russians believing he’s made the perfect escape plan. In 2019, Yevgeny Prigozhin was reported dead after a plane crash in the

Democratic Republic of the Congo, only for a stunning twist to prevail. Just three days later, Prigozhin shockingly resurfaced, debunking reports of his demise and leaving many puzzled.

Prigozhin’s business jet crashed again back in August, with Kremlin reports suggesting he was killed, but given the Kremlin’s shady past, how can we trust that?....“It’s been announced that a passenger by the name of Yevgeniy Prigozhin was onboard. But it is also known that multiple individuals have changed their name to Yevgeniy Prigozhin” a reporter said.
Reports suggest that the crash and subsequent fire may have left Prigozhin’s body too disfigured for conventional identification methods. Some speculate that the crash could be a convenient escape plan for Prigozhin, given his history of using multiple passports and disguises. 

One Russian scientist believed Prigozhin faked his death, “And to disappear forever, having taken one of his many spare passports, a burnt-out airplane is a good way to do it,” he claimed." CSU
