Pavel Antov
Pavel Genrikhovich Antov (; 22 December 1957 – 24 December 2022) was a Russian politician and businessman who served as a deputy in the Legislative Assembly of Vladimir Oblast. In 2019, Forbes Russia listed him as the richest deputy in Russia, and he was listed as the current vice president and minority share-holder of Vladmirsky Standart, a major manufacturer of sausage products in Russia. Antov died after reportedly falling out of a window at Hotel Sai International in Rayagada in the Indian state of Odisha while on holiday there to celebrate his 65th birthday. His death came just two days after his close friend, businessman Vladimir Bidenov, died at the same hotel from a suspected heart problem.

People From Voskresensk
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility.

Legislators In Russia
A legislator (also known as a deputy or lawmaker) is a person who writes and passes laws, especially someone who is a member of a legislature. Legislators are often elected by the people of the state. Legislatures may be supra-national (for example, the European Parliament), national (for example, the United States Congress), or local (for example, local authorities). Overview The political theory of the separation of powers requires legislators to be independent individuals from the members of the executive and the judiciary. Certain political systems adhere to this principle, others do not. In the United Kingdom, for example, the executive is formed almost exclusively from legislators (members of Parliament) although the judiciary is mostly independent (until reforms in 2005, the Lord Chancellor uniquely was a legislator, a member of the executive - indeed, the Cabinet - and a judge, while until 2009 the Lords of Appeal in Ordinary were both judges and legislators as membe ...
