[REGNUM] The candidate for the State Duma from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, director of CJSC "State Farm named after Lenin" Pavel Grudinin will be excluded from the party list for the upcoming elections to the State Duma.
As reported by TASS with reference to the draft resolution of the Central Election Commission of Russia, the fact is that the candidate did not provide a number of documents after the statement of his ex-wife about the existence of offshore assets.
"The commission initially did not have data on Grudinin’s foreign assets and trusted the candidate, since there was no information preventing his registration," explained Nikolai Bulaev, deputy chairman of the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation .
The fact that candidate Pavel Grudinin still has assets in Belize was confirmed by the Russian prosecutor's office. This circumstance is contrary to the laws on elections.

[SHAFAQ] An Azerbaijani soldier was killed, and three Armenian soldiers were maimed on Friday in the most recent clash between the two countries since their bloody conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh last year. Both Baku and Yerevan reported, in recent months, shooting incidents along their borders, raising fear of a renewed territorial dispute between them.
"On July 23 (Friday), at approximately 16:00 (1200 GMT), Armenian armed forces shot up Azerbaijani army positions at the Kelbajar sector of the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border," Baku's defense ministry said in a statement, adding "an Azerbaijani army serviceman was killed by the enemy's sniper."
Armenia blamed Azerbaijan for the incident, stating that "three Armenian servicemen got maimed in the intense shootout."
Baku's President Aliyev told the AzTV network on Thursday: "This is our ancestors' land, we are on our land," referring to the territory that Yerevan considers part of its Syunik district.
My best guess: This was a Chechen organized crime hit, a preventative measure against further investigations against drug trafficking. Chechnya is responsible for most of the methamphetamine that goes to Russia. Prolly a fair amount of ganja, as well.
