Russian MP, husband die in explosion while ‘having sex’ in a car
NOVOSIBIRSK: A glamorous Russian lawmaker and her husband died in an explosion after one of the partners allegedly set off a grenade inside a parked car in which they were reportedly having sex, reports said.
The remains of Oksana Bobrovskaya, who was in Vladimir Putin’s United Russia Party and the regional legislative deputy of Novosibirsk city, and her husband Nikita Bobrovskaya, an ex-military special service personnel, were found semi-naked in the rear seat of their Toyota RAV-4 on Saturday.
It is suspected that Nikita, who had accused his wife of extra-marital affairs in the past, forced her to have sex with him while holding an explosive device in his hand. The 30-yearold MP’s face was reportedly ripped off in the explosion and all the windows, except the front windscreen, were blown out. “It was horrific — something you would not wish anyone to see. No heads, glass covered in blood ... a nightmare,” a witness told the Siberian Times. Vitaly Latypov, head of the investigation department of Oktyabrsky district, told the Siberian Times that a ‘common grenade’ may have caused the explosion. “There is a version that he held in his hands a kind of grenade or a piece of TNT,” a police source said.
Novosibirsk mayor Anatoly Lokot said Oksana and her husband’s death was due to problems in her family. “This was not a terrorist act,” the mayor said.
The couple is survived by their four-year-old daughter, Angelina.
