Intriguing 'scar' appears on neck of Vladimir Putin

'Scar' appears on neck of Vladimir Putin | The 'scar' marking on Vladimir Putin's neck was seen as he clasped a candle at a midnight Orthodox Easter cathedral service in Moscow at the weekend. It has led to web discussion on whether it represents proof of credible claims initially made by Proekt [Project] media one year ago that Putin has suffered from thyroid cancer. An investigation by the independent outlet revealed that the dictator is constantly accompanied by a surgeon - Yevgeny Selivanov, of Moscow's Central Clinical Hospital - specialising in thyroid cancer.
