What a strange way of getting rid of Prigozhin if that was indeed the case, why not arresting him followed by a sham trial and execution? There was definitely a legal case to do so.

Instead, Putin acts like he's some Chinese warlord in the 30s. And if this was done by someone else high up it just shows his weakness.

I think it would not have sent the message which Putin wanted to send. Putin never missed the occasion to remind that "Russian" should not be defined by people being born within Russia's border but by people's willingness to bow to him.
