Speaking on August 10, Mr Redkin told officials that he wanted to scare a bear roaming around the area but accidentally shot a man at dusk rummaging in a garbage dump in Russia’s Far Eastern village of Ozernovsky. According to Russian local media, Mr Redkin half-owns Vityaz-Aero, an aviation company specialising in helicopter tours to specially protected natural areas.
