Russian Businessman Announces $1 Million Bounty On Vladimir Putin's Head

New Delhi: Ever since, the Russian President Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine, protests against him began from the world. Even in Russia, people are not accepting Putin's large-scale attacks on neighboring countries.

In a recent example of the protest, a Russian entrepreneur named Alex Konanykhin has put a $1 million bounty on Russian President Vladimir Putin's head, asking for Russian military officers to arrest Putin as a war criminal.

"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 further said that he would like to see Putin arrested soon and wanted to see a picture of Putin being captured after the Ukraine war.

''Putin is not the Russian president as he came to power as the result of a special operation of blowing up apartment buildings in Russia, then violated the Constitution by eliminating free elections and murdering his opponents,'' he added.

He also said that as an ethnic Russian and a Russia citizen, I see it as my moral duty to facilitate the denazification of Russia.

''I will continue my assistance to Ukraine in its heroic efforts to withstand the onslaught of Putin's Orda,'' he added.

Alex's post also includes a photo of Putin and in the center of the photo is Putin's face, with the caption "Wanted: Dead or Alive… for War Crimes." Although this post was deleted after it went viral, its screenshots went viral.

Meanwhile, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) has already begun testing whether Russia can be prosecuted for war crimes.
