The death of Mr Sechin had not been reported until Vladimir Putin critic Leonid Nevzlin drew attention to a new record in the national register of inheritance cases.
Ivan Sechin, the 35-year-old son of Igor Sechin, an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin and the CEO of Russian state-owned oil firm Rosneft, died on February 5, as per a report in Newsweek.
The death of Mr Sechin had not been reported until exiled Russian oligarch and Vladimir Putin critic Leonid Nevzlin drew attention to a new record in the national register of inheritance cases. The entry in the registry is registered to Ivan Igorevich Sechin, who was born in 1989 and resided in a building previously identified as "a house for President Putin's associates," according to independent Russian news outlets.
Mr Nevzlin took to Facebook and said that it was a "strange coincidence". He added, "Today, when we recalled with my friends and partners why started the Kremlin war against Yukos, namely Mikhail Khodorkovsky's report on corruption at the RPP meeting, it was today that I learned that Igor Sechin had just lost his son. The very same man who fabricated every blatant and bloody case against us. And still."
