Poland said it apprehended 3 suspects about the attack, with Lithuania claiming it thought Russian unique services were behind the attack." Leonid Nevzlin ordered the beating and kidnapping of Volkov," Navalny's staff claimed.Nevzlin is actually the previous co-owner of exiled Kremlin movie critic Mikhail Khodorkovsky's now-defunct oil company Yukos. He migrated to Israel in 2003." Yet Nevzlin was actually dissatisfied along with the end result and also really did not pay the assured $250,000 for the work," the group stated, adding that it brought about a dispute between the business owner and the alleged coordinator of the attack.Navalny's team mentioned it ended up with audio as well as aesthetic proof of Nevzlin's involvement from a supposed "fixer" called Andrei Matus who was actually apparently ordered to seize the gunman's phones..Team Navalny claimed it had actually organized a meeting with Matus in Montenegro, where the "fixer" participated in an audio of his telephone call along with Nevzlin corroborating the details of the strike on Volkov and 2 other assaults on banished opposition participants.Group Navalny pointed out Matus "faded away" right after learning that they would not be able to pay him for the relevant information.

Or even it is an FSB justification and also a fake on which a considerable amount of cash has been actually devoted. We have viewed such justifications greater than as soon as, as an example, in the Magnitsky scenario."

For flawlessly logical explanations, I pitch in the direction of the second," he continued, requiring the claims to become checked out through law enforcement.Group Navalny stated it advised the police of nations where Nevzlin is actually thought to live and also was ready to hand over its records." I can certainly not cover my scalp around this details yet. Khodorkovsky invested 10 years in jail Putin expropriated his multi-billion-dollar organization. Considering that 2013, Khodorkovsky was a famous voice in expatriation. (Nevzlin left to Israel in 2003, when Khodorkovsky's empire was actually under attack from Putin.)," financial expert as well as political commentator Konstantin Sonin wrote on X (formerly Twitter)." What I can mention is that @navalny's staff has had an impeccable track record in fact-finding journalism. With Alexei and after that without him, they revealed a lot of important episodes of [the Putin regimen's] nepotism, their influence networks, their army hookups, etc," he composed.
