The report by The Times said that the bruising found on Navalny’s body is consistent with the ‘one-punch’ execution method citing Russian exile and human rights campaigner Vladimir Osechkin.

“It is an old method of the KGB’s special forces divisions. They trained their operatives to kill a man with one punch in the heart, in the centre of the body. It was a hallmark of the KGB," Osechkin was quoted as saying by The Times.

Osechkin also cast doubts on the claims brought forward by Navalny’s widow Yulia Navalnaya that Navalny was possibly poisoned using Novichok. He said that authorities could have killed him in whichever way they deemed fine but would have ensured to not “leave a trace in his body that would lead directly back to Putin”.
