They tried to kill me in december of 2008, but I was lucky. Then few more attempts were made. One was almost successful - my friend with same name was killed by mistake instead of me. I hired retired policemen to investigate and he jailed few of them, then Russians killed him too. Assassination of political opponents is common practice in Russia since 1917.

Who are "they" and "he"? What part of your politics is so offensive to them? You aren't in Russia now?

I newer was in Russia, I'm from Ukraine. I'm similar to Bellingcat, doing amateur counterintelligence.
