Russian investor puts a $1 million bounty on Vladimir Putin’s head

A Russian investor has placed a $1 million bounty on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s head, calling on Russian military officials to arrest Putin for war crimes, Insider reports.

“I promise to pay $1,000,000 to the officer(s) who, complying with their constitutional duty, arrest(s) Putin as a war criminal under Russian and international laws,” said crypto investor and California-based businessman Alex Konanykhin in a Facebook post on Wednesday.

He went on to say that Putin had violated the Russian constitution by “eliminating free elections” and “murdering his opponents.”
