Playboy Prigozhin Jr. is following in his mercenary-chief father’s footsteps

Doing business in the empire of Putin the Terrible!

"When Yevgeny Prigozhin, died in a plane explosion after a public falling-out with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the then-25-year-old Pavel Prigozhin was left in charge of Wagner Group, an empire of gunfighters, gold smugglers and drug dealers. Once seen as a pampered playboy posing on superyachts, he turned out to be a natural, expanding operations in Wagner’s African stronghold in the Central African Republic. ... how the Prigozhin family business generates more than $400 million a year by controlling gold mines, distributing illicit opioids and selling arms to rebel groups."
