A Russian billionaire mysteriously died after being a well-known critic of Putin during his lifetime.

In this case, the individual who has passed is Sergey Grishin, who is sometimes known as the ‘Scarface Oligarch.’ He died mysteriously in a Russian hospital after a severe illness. The Sun U.S. reports that Grishin is said to have died from “circulatory problems in his brain,” which led to sepsis.

During his lifetime, Grishin slammed the Putin rule of Russia and called upon then-President Trump to grant him a passport to the United States because he “wanted to be safe.”

He said, “I am kind of under fire right now by the criminal world of Russia, by the top government officials of Russia, too.”

However, Grishin spent the last years of his life in Russia, and he also made waves by selling one of his mansions to Prince Harry and Meghan Merkle. He had purchased the massive estate, known as the Chateau of Riven Rock, with a seven-acre site, pool, tennis court, guest quarters, and stunning main house in 2009. However, he sold the property to Prince Harry and Meghan Merkle the property at a later date.

The royal couple left Los Angeles and moved into Montecito, Santa Barbara, an area known to be home to celebrities such as Ellen Degeneres and Oprah.

Grishin was the former co-owner of RosEvroBank and was unafraid to brag about things he said he accomplished. Namely, Grishin was known to boast that he had “brought the Russian banking system to its knees” in the 1990s by committing a $60 billion fraud. The Sun U.S. reports that Grishin called it “the largest bank fraud scheme ever” by working on stealing $60 billion from the Russian Central Bank. Grishin has made things reasonably challenging for Putin and others in Russia in the past by doing all that he has done in the banking world and bragging about how he has brought down the Russian banking system (based on what he says about his accomplishments).

Many are curious about how Grishin suddenly became so ill in the hospital where he passed away in Russia. In the past, Putin has taken extreme measures to wipe out some of his opposition. People are wondering now how this opponent of Putin has suddenly and unexpectedly taken ill.
