The Kremlin’s poisoned critic, Alexei Navalny, remains a thorn in the side of Russian President Vladimir Putin after digging up the Instagram account of the strong man’s alleged 17-year-old son, according to a report.
Putin, 68, was associated by the Russian outlet Proekt with Svetlana Krivonogikh, a cleaning maid who is worth more than $ 100 million and lives in a chic area of St. Petersburg.
Glamorous images of her luxury-loving daughter, Elizaveta – also known as Luiza – surfaced online showing the teenager wearing a Gucci mask, posing seductively in designer clothes and drinking drinks amid the coronavirus pandemic, Sun reported.
The teenager’s Instagram account was exposed by Navalny, who was taken into custody on Sunday night after flying home for the first time since he was poisoned last summer, according to the media.
His posts reveal his love for leading luxury brands, including YSL, Bottega Veneta, Miu Miu, Tom Ford, Chanel, Jacquemus, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Alexander Wang and Maison Margiela, reported Sun.
A video about Luiza’s account shows her dancing with a Russian teenager who attended a school in Surrey, England, generating rumors that she was also educated in the United Kingdom, according to the report.
The teenager’s followers on Instagram jumped from 17,000 to 42,000 in a matter of hours, while she attacked her jealous “enemies”.
“Wow, I can see a sweater paid for my taxes. How many pensions does this sweater cost? ”One user commented, Sun reported.
“What do you say at school when you are asked, ‘Who is your father?’” Said another.
Another offered the zinger: “What is it like to be born with Putin’s face?”
Luiza, who has reportedly lived under a false name for years, was born in 2003 when Putin was still married to now ex-ex Lyudmila Shkrebneva.
Proekt said that his birth documents do not list a father, and only “Vladimirovna” as the name derived from his father.
Luiza’s mother, now 45, had been a cleaning lady of modest origin before becoming a beneficiary of a company that has a small stake in Banco Rossiya, linked to Putin, as well as owning properties in several cities, according to Proekt’s investigation.
It also owns a nightclub known for “erotic shows,” says the report, estimating its total assets at at least $ 102 million.
Putin never officially confirmed his two daughters from his first marriage – Maria and Katerina, both in their 30s – and it is rumored that she has up to four children with former gymnast Alina Kabaeva.
Navalny’s latest revelation came after he claimed in a viral video that Putin owns an opulent billion-dollar palace that was built on fraudulently obtained funds.
The Kremlin immediately denied that Putin was the owner of the palace.
Navalny was jailed for 30 days after his return to Moscow in connection with alleged violations of a suspended sentence in an embezzlement case that he insists was forged.
He fell into a coma on a domestic flight from Siberia to Moscow on August 20. Two days later, he was transferred from one hospital in Siberia to another in Berlin.
Laboratories in Germany, France and Sweden, and tests by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, established that he was exposed to a Soviet-era nerve agent, Novichok.
