The FSB Public Relations Center distributed a video showing how an unknown person puts something under a car allegedly owned by the chairman of the board of directors of the Tsargrad group of companies, Konstantin Malofeev, and then sappers clear the car with the help of a robot.
The video is extremely strange: they mine a car parked on the side of the road, where no one guards it, but for some reason they mine it not in the same place, but in an underground garage, to which it was not clear how it was delivered. However, it seems that it was not delivered: there are two different cars in the video.
There is a Mercedes Maybach W222 in the garage. The Maybach emblem can be seen on the C-pillar. Mercedes in the standard factory configuration, as well as Mercedes AMG, have nothing in this place.
However, the video from the surveillance camera, which captured the moment of mining, is of low resolution; in principle, one could assume that the emblem on it is invisible, although this is unlikely.
But even at low resolution, it's easy to see that there's nothing on the trunk lid to the left of the Mercedes emblem. Mercedes Maybach should have Maybach written there.
Journalist Andrei Zakharov drew attention to other hard-to-explain moments in the FSB version:
“On the FSB video, most likely, Malofeev’s Maybach really is – his friend confirmed to me that he mostly travels in this car. However, a guard and a driver always travel with him, and the master, as befits a master, sits behind. Actually, this can be seen in the pictures of the entrepreneur’s car available on the network (the faces themselves are smeared there, but obviously there are two people in the front seats).
Thus, even if Malofeev leaves somewhere on business with a security guard in the area of a noisy Moscow traffic junction (you never know – impatient!), Then the driver must remain in place. True, this question can also be refuted: the driver went somewhere on a personal assignment, and at that moment the explosives were placed.
Classic conspiracy theory: everything is suspicious, everything can be refuted – and denials work both ways.
In any case, the FSB video of the "assassination attempt" behind which SBU agent Denis Kapustin allegedly stands raises many questions.
