The sudden death this Saturday of a famous German critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, 57-year-old Andreas Schockenhoff, has led to a court ruling that his body undergo an autopsy.
The court’s move is designed to rule out any “conspiracy theories” about the death of a conservative Member of Germany’s Bundestag with a distinguished anti-Putin stance, Ukraine Today reports.
The preliminary results of the autopsy will be announced on Wednesday, according to state prosecutors.
