Yevgeny Nuzhin, the killed fighter of the "Wagner" PMK, voluntarily agreed to go to Russia during the exchange of prisoners with Ukraine.

The adviser to the head of the Office of the President, Mykhailo Podolyak, informed TV channel "Dozhd" about this.

According to Mykhailo Podoliak, Yevhen Nuzhin, ex-prisoner and fighter of the "Wagner" PKK, whose murder video circulated on the Internet, was sent by Ukraine to the Russian Federation as a result of the exchange of prisoners of war.

He went through the formal exchange process and signed a voluntary agreement for it.

"We have a very simple approach.

A captured serviceman can sign a voluntary waiver of the exchange procedure.

And we will record this," explained Podolyak.

Also, the adviser to the head of the OP denied the rumors that Nuzhin was exchanged for 20 Ukrainian prisoners of war.

According to him, the exchange took place according to the package-for-package rule, as a result of which Ukraine received 47 of its defenders.

According to Podoliak, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of the "Wagner" PMC, could have used Nuzhin for his own propaganda purposes, arranging a show punishment of a military man.

Earlier on the Web, one of the "Wagner" telegram channels published a video with the show murder of Yevhen Nuzhin.

The man's head was broken with a sledgehammer. 

the owner of PVK "Wagner" Evgeny Prigozhin called the video "a wonderful director's work" and that "a dog's death is a dog's death". Later he asked the Prosecutor General's Office to check the version about involvement in the death of a former prisoner of the "American special services". 

The Kremlin refused to comment on the execution of the Exwagner man, saying that "it is none of their business."
