A popular and glamorous Russian politician and her husband were blown up Thursday night while having sex in the back seat of their car.
Witnesses said the remains of regional legislative deputy Oksana Bobrovskaya, 30, and her former military special services husband, Nikita, were found naked from the waist down in the wreckage.
Police say a grenade caused the explosion, but they don't suspect terrorism.
Going by early witness reports, police suggest the husband might have detonated the bomb, believing his wife was having an affair.
Local reports say the couple had fought earlier. Nikita had accused Oksana of cheating, according to the Siberian Times.
"There is a version that he held in his hands a kind of grenade, or a piece of TNT," the Times reported, citing a source.
The bodies were reportedly found badly mangled in the the Toyota RAV4.
"It was horrific -- something you would not wish anyone to see. No heads, glass covered in blood... a nightmare," said witness Evgenia Romanova, whose husband was one of the first on the scene.
The couple had a four-year-old girl, now an orphan.
