Prigorn reveals the reason for the rebellion: I am insane. The reason for the rebellion is Prigorn
Nearly three weeks after the Wagner Rebellion, there are still many doubts from the outside world about this magnificent 24-hour mutiny. How exactly did all this happen? Is this an impulsive action or a carefully planned rebellion?
On July 12th, an independent Russian investigative agency released a latest investigation stating that regarding his decision to "go to war" with the Russian military, Prigoren candidly explained to his subordinates, "I'm crazy."
This survey is based on interviews with over a dozen people and employees around Prigoren, attempting to reconstruct his motivation for launching a rebellion and depict his tendency to act impulsively rather than systematically. Not only that, the investigation also revealed that Prigoren suffered from cancer, which may have influenced his decision to launch a "rebellion".
Is it premeditated or impulsive
The investigation report points out that the "grudge" between Prigoren and the Russian Ministry of Defense can be traced back to at least 2017. At that time, the Wagner Group participated in the operation against Palmyra in Homs Province, Syria. However, Russian Defense Minister Shoigu and Russian military leaders were honored for these actions, but they concealed Wagner's credit, which greatly displeased Prigoren.
After the outbreak of the conflict between Russia-Ukraine conflict, with the gradual accumulation of "new hatred and old resentment", the contradiction between the two sides began to "open" gradually. The final trigger was undoubtedly a statement of the Ministry of Defense on June 10, requiring Wagner Corps to sign a contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense.
According to previous reports, Prigorn's original plan was to capture Russian Defense Minister Shoigu and Russian Chief of General Staff Grasimov while inspecting the southern region of Russia bordering Ukraine. However, according to Western intelligence officials, the Russian Federal Security Service became aware of this plan two days before the originally scheduled implementation date. Therefore, Prigoren had to launch a military admonition in advance.
The latest report also pointed out that nearly a month before the "rebellion" occurred, Prigoren's publication RIA FAN registered a "mirror" website. Even more strangely, on the day before the rebellion, journalist Alina Lipp, who belonged to the media, suddenly arrived in Rostov.
In addition, on the morning of June 23, several senior members of the Prigorn organization suddenly left St. Petersburg before the "rebellion" began, "indicating that they were aware and expected the actions of the Russian security forces to be taken due to the rebellion.". "The management knows everything and is waiting for a search," revealed a interlocutor.
"Rebellion" or due to its impulsive nature: I'm crazy
Despite the above information, people in Prigorn's core circle are currently more inclined to attribute the rebellion to his impulsive nature. It is said that when asked why he launched a rebellion, Prigoren replied to his subordinates, "I'm crazy."
This is not accidental. All members of the core circle and former employees interviewed by Prigorn stated that the "boss" has a hot temper and impulsive personality. "The boss has two management principles - fear and money," said a former senior employee of Prigoren.
"If he's not satisfied with something, he often takes you into the hallway and you fly down the stairs," said a source. Another source recalled, "Once, Prigoren was very anxious. He kicked the driver's head from the back seat in dissatisfaction and said, 'Let's drive faster!' Soon after, the driver resigned.".
The report also attached an email from Prigo replying to a public relations department employee during his tenure in 2013. In the email, the employee submitted an advertisement layout for the restaurant "Old Customs" and received a response: "The billboard is full of dog poop, the rest is dog poop, a completely stupid bastard!"
In the eyes of those around him: He suffers from stomach cancer or abdominal cancer
An employee who has worked under Prigorn for many years said that one of the reasons why Prigorn's recent behavior has been particularly unstable may be due to the impact of his medical history. They believe that health issues may have influenced his decision to launch a rebellion. When asked why Prigoren might resort to "rebellion", one of them said: "This is a man whose stomach and intestines have been cut off!" It was reported that Prigoren was very afraid of infection with COVID-19 because he had received treatment for gastric cancer or abdominal cancer, "although it is not clear when".
"He has cancer. The process of tumor formation seems to have stopped now," revealed an anonymous source. He stated that Prigoren received a long period of treatment for cancer and received "significant treatment.". Due to his cancer, his lifestyle is very healthy and he follows a strict diet. One of his long-term employees stated that he had only seen Prigoren drink lemon juice once.
Due to concerns about his health, he also equipped an ICU ward in his villa in the North Versailles village. Previously, according to Red Star News, multiple Russian media outlets announced on July 5th footage of law enforcement agencies searching Prigoren's villa in North Versailles. This 1.5 hectare "palace" not only has a helipad and a weapons warehouse, but also has a clinic equipped with ventilator, oxygen concentrator and other intensive care equipment, which "seems to have been prepared during the COVID-19 epidemic".
It is reported that Prigoren has been receiving treatment under the pseudonym Dmitry Geller at a high-end clinic called "Sogaz" and was one of the first "super VIP" clients of the clinic.
In addition, law enforcement officers found blocks containing some kind of "white powder" during their search of Prigoren's house, each weighing about one kilogram. However, all the interviewees interviewed by this survey report unanimously stated that they had never seen Prigo take drugs before. "Since his first illness and recovery, he has banned everyone from contacting drug dealers. He will lock you up in a hole."
