Do you have any data to support this claim? Having just read Bill Browder's Red Notice I find that to be a questionable statement.

Browder became rich in the era of voucher privatisation, there are all sorts of reasons why he may not exactly be an unbiased witness.
The overreach on southern straits is pretty egregious.

By comparison, most of that kind of stuff in Russia died with Stalin.

This is Kremlin paid propaganda from Andrei Nekrasov, a Russian film director who retweets RT and WikiLeaks.

Since Browder's become far too high profile for Putin to murder, the level of effort by Russian trolls to discredit him has been truly remarkable.
