Unidentified Attack on Lawyer’s Car Linked to Plastic Surgeon Amid Threats

In Moscow, an unspecified group targeted the vehicle of a high-profile plastic surgeon by dousing it with acid, according to a report referenced by Life via the Shot Telegram channel. The attack took place when the car was parked overnight, and the caustic liquid damaged the roof and hood, stripping away the paint in several areas. The lawyer for the surgeon, who has been vocal in public disputes, reported the incident after seeking medical and police assistance. He said he had long faced threats after taking on cases for the physician, who is known for treating a number of well-known Russian clients. The same individuals who attacked the car allegedly warned that similar acts could target the lawyer’s vehicle as well. The incident adds to a pattern of intimidation connected to the lawyer’s defense of a prominent figure in the medical field. The surgeon has faced scrutiny and complaints about the outcomes of various procedures. In the past, he publicly addressed allegations of substandard breast surgery for a renowned singer, amid ongoing discussions about the quality of his interventions.
