The explosion of the "Tank" in Moscow was carried out by a former Belarusian special forces soldier

The co-owner of the "Ugly Coyote", 50-year-old Vitaly S., who is suspected of blowing up the Tank car of his business partner Viktor Mishachev on Trade Union Street in Moscow, turned out to be a former Belarusian special forces soldier.

According to the telegram channel Shot, recently 50-year-old Vitaly opened bars in Moscow with the victim. Previously, he wanted to squeeze Victor's shares in drinking establishments, including the Coyote with half-naked girls on the bar.

"The detainee Vitaly was a co-owner of more than 10 establishments in Moscow, he wrote on social networks that he served in a military unit in Minsk. But his shares there were small — mostly 5%. The businessman, according to one version, wanted more, besides, his relationship with one of the partners, 44—year-old Victor, was not going well. Vitaly eventually decided to scare his colleague and put an IED on his Tank SUV. He covered the explosive device with a baby diaper and a garbage bag. Victor threw the package away, and when he took the diaper, there was an explosion. The man had part of his hand torn off, and his 6-year-old son also received a head wound. Now their lives are not in danger," the report says.

Several Saiga-410 and Vepr-12 carbines, hunting knives, a unloading vest and camouflage clothing were found in the apartment of a former Belarusian special forces soldier in Bibirevo.

The Readovka telegram channel adds that Vitaly S. was responsible for security in the network of the victim Viktor Mishachev's establishments, and was also a co-owner of the business.

"A whole arsenal was found in the suspect's apartment — Saiga-410 carbines and "Vepr-12", knives, unloading vests and camouflage," confirms TK.

Earlier it became known that the detainee was taken for questioning. A criminal case on attempted murder has been opened.

"As a result of the explosion of an IED planted by him, a 6-year-old boy and two adults were injured. The explosives were installed on the hood of a Tank SUV belonging to Mishachev," Readovka clarifies.
