The Attack and Robbery Against Gradski's Widow May Have Been Staged, Musician's Friend Suggests

The friend of the late Russian musician Alexander Gradsky, Anatoly Aleshin, has not ruled out the possibility that the attack on the singer’s widow, Marina Kotashenkova, could have been staged. According to Gazeta.ru, the singer suggested that the organizer could be either Kotashenkova herself or the musician's ex-wife, Olga Gradskaia.

“I have doubts that this could have been orchestrated. At the same time, I don't know who could have organized it—either the widow or his former wife,” Aleshin stated.

It is noteworthy that three unidentified individuals created an accident involving Gradsky's widow's vehicle on January 16, after which 100 million rubles were stolen from her.
