RUSSIAN rapper left a haunting message to his fans shortly before ‘taking his own life’ rather than being forced to kill in the name of 'maniac' Vladimir Putin as a conscript in the war in Ukraine.
In his final video, Ivan Petunin, 27, aka Walkie, told he has no right to pull the trigger and kill people. He said he was choosing how to die in a final protest against the Kremlin leader.

 Popular Russian rapper kills himself to prevent mobilization Popular Russian rapper Ivan Petunin has ended his life, local media in his hometown of Krasnodar report. In a farewell video on his Telegram account, he addresses his fans about President Putin's mobilization campaign. He says he is not willing to kill other people.
The 27-year-old rapper, known by his stage name Walkie, saw no other way out to avoid fighting in Ukraine.
"Forgive me dear people," he says visibly emotionally, "sometimes you have to die for your principles. My final decision is how I will die, as someone remembered for supporting what is happening, or for his latest protest. We are all prisoners of a maniac who gives us the choice between prison, the army or the choice I made."
Petunin's body was found on the street at the bottom of a high-rise apartment building. He would have been visiting friends.
According to local media, in the hours before his death, he released his last album, entitled Walk Out Boy 3. Source: nos.nl/liveblog/2446771-zelensky-meldt-vordering-in-regio-cherson-atoomagentschap-wil-vrijlating-directeur-zaporizja |

Being that myself have never met Mr. Ivan Petunin nevertheless though, to know of his suicide over such an issue as the Russian draft. This brings into the question of: using a forever solution for a short time situation with killing one's self is not realistic nor logical. But the deed has been done, now it is to his beliefs from this point on that is on the table.
And such a young man with his life totally in front of him, or was.
