Jet's registration changed hands regularly
The aircraft which crashed killing Yevgeny Prigozhin was once registered in the Isle of Man, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The newspaper claims the jet's registration changed hands regularly since it was acquired from a Manx firm in 2018.
The seven passengers and three crew members all perished when the aircraft, reportedly worth ten million US dollars, fell to the ground as it flew between Moscow and St Petersburg just over a week ago.
Prigozhin led a mercenary force called Wagner - the Wall Street Journal also claims his flights were undertaken under secrecy as he feared assassination.
