Putin attack suspect 'badly beaten'

[kskiska]

The man arrested last week for allegedly trying to kill President Vladimir Putin with a car bomb was interrogated by 150 police officers before he died.

Police said he died of a heart attack. The Observer can reveal that the body of Alexander Pumane, 38, from St Petersburg, was so badly beaten that his relatives were unable to identify him.

Pumane was arrested at 1am last Saturday after he parked a Lada near the foreign ministry. Police found explosives, two anti-personnel mines and a container of unidentified liquid in the car.

The Izvestiya newspaper said he was interrogated by up to 150 people. Pumane said he had been paid $1,000 (£550) - but refused to say by whom - to drive two cars to Kutuzovsky Prospekt, a road used daily by the presidential limousine.

After hours in custody, Pumane was rushed to hospital, and by 8.30am he was dead.

3. Humans are not just animals.

But sometimes it takes great strength to rise above the animal in us. The animal that seeks revenge. Trust me- I know... I know.


I have always had a dream. That we can all rise above that basest of desires, and live together. In peace.

It shouldn't be a dream.

4. You know,

I believe it's rare for animals to kill for reasons other than food ,territory etc. They don't kill for revenge or any of human's evil reasons.

Looking at what's happening in the news around the world it appears to me that humans have quite a bent for homicide. Don't get me wrong, I don't mean the majority of us.

I think animals have it much more together than we do.
