TWO alleged anti-Putin bombers have been accused of orchestrating a deadly explosion that killed a Russian military blogger.

As she was led away in handcuffs from the residential complex, she reportedly said: “I was set up. I was just being used.” Surveillance footage captured her heading inside the venue where Tatarsky was leading a discussion with a cardboard box. The suspect, wearing a long coat, strolled past the cafe while clutching the package shortly before the blast that injured 30. Tryopova, who has previously been detained for taking part in anti-war rallies, is said to have delivered the lethal statue that contained up to 450 grams of TNT. She allegedly handed the lethal gift to Tatarsky at the event at the venue owned by mercenary warlord Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder of the brutal Wagner Group. Eyewitnesses claim a woman, who called herself an “artist” told the pro-Putin blogger: “It’s not easy. That’s why I’ve only made your bust so far.” She explained she “wanted to show the heroes of Putin’s special military operation” before retrieving the box from a coat cupboard. The alleged bomber then handed it to Tatarsky, who was seen in a clip holding the package approvingly before placing it down. Just three minutes later, the explosive device detonated at the “Street Bar” café. Tryopova is said to have fled the scene and was reportedly booked on a flight from Pulkovo Airport hours later -but never showed up for it. Her flat was raided by cops and local media said her mother was arrested, while officials scour over her conversations in private web chat. The former shop worker had breakfast with her friend on Sunday and sent her a message following the explosion. Tryopova wrote: “I could have died there, I’d rather have died there, I was set up.” She is then alleged to have changed the settings on her messenger account for the first time in seven years. Tryopova’s boyfriend Dmitry Rylov – also in his 20s and a member of the so-called Russian Liberation Army – says she has been “set up.” He is also wanted by the secret services and has been detained at anti-war protests with his girlfriend. Rylov insisted Tryopova must have “completely misunderstood the purpose” of the statue given to Tatarsky. He said: “I believe that my wife was set up. “I am in full confidence that she would never be able to do something like that on her own volition.  “Yes, with Daria we really do not support the war in Ukraine, but we believe that such actions are unacceptable. “I am 100 percent sure that she would never have agreed to such a thing if she had known.” TwitterTryopova has claimed she was ‘set up’ after being detained by the FSB[/caption] EPAAuthorities are still hunting her alleged accomplice Maria Yarun, 40, in connection with the explosion[/caption] East2WestTryopova has claimed she was ‘set up’ after being detained by the FSB[/caption]
