Quote from Peskov: "No comment.

We do not know what it is or whether it is true or not.

It is not our business."

Why this is important: On 13 November, it was reported that a Russian citizen was cruelly executed without any trial by tying his head to concrete with adhesive tape and hitting it with a sledgehammer. 

Yevgeny Prigozhin, Head of the Wagner private military company, has hinted that the execution was carried out by his mercenaries.
