Russian investigators believe a former Yukos’ shareholder ordered the mysterious killing of Kremlin critic Alexander Litvinenko. The investigators suspect that Leonid Nevzlin, who lives in exile in Israel, ordered the murder of Litvinenko, Russian daily Kommersant reported.
Nevzlin called the allegations “absolute nonsense.” He met Litvinenko in Israel to discuss research the former spy was doing on the Yukos affair.
Interfax news agency quoted an unidentified source in the prosecutor-general’s office as saying Russia had sent a request to Britain’s Crown Prosecution Service asking for the exiled tycoon Boris Berezovsky to be questioned.
“There is a request to carry out a series of investigative actions including the questioning of a large number of people, in particular businessman Boris Berezovsky who lives in London,” the source said, according to Interfax.
