Yevgeny Prigozhin has been buried at a “private” funeral ceremony in St. Petersburg, Russia, his press team revealed on Tuesday. The surprise burial ends days of speculation over how the Wagner Group chief, who died in a plane crash last week, would be laid to rest following his fallout with President Vladimir Putin.
The Kremlin had said that Putin wouldn’t be attending the funeral, but offered no other details about the burial until it was revealed by Prigozhin’s team on Tuesday. Russian law enforcement surrounded the Pokrovskoye Cemetery on Tuesday afternoon during the ceremony, according to The New York Times. They didn’t allow members of the public to enter. Prigozhin’s death was a sensitive one for the Russian government.
