The mysterious gunman killed a former militant who fought Russian forces in Chechnya in a Berlin park last month and has since refused to talk to police.
on August 23 without help from Russian officials. Khangoshvili fought against Russian forces in Chechnya.
However, following the man's arrest, the record seems to have been removed from the database. All of this, Bellingcat argued, could not have been achieved without government assistance. To do so successfully, he would have needed a domestic Russian passport, proof of employment, a bank statement showing sufficient funds to return home, and travel insurance. The assassin required an entire fake personality, one backed up by government documents and databases.
The tax file listed a residential address for Sokolov in Bryansk, a town in the west of Russia close to the Belarusian border. But the ownership records obtained by Bellingcat showed no owner for the property. A site visit found an elderly man living there, who said he knew no one of Sokolov's name living there now or in the past.
