.The team of overdue Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny on Thursday accused a Russian-Israeli billionaire of getting the violent March strike on Navalny ally Leonid Volkov, naming documentation it secured.Volkov, Navalny's ex-chief of personnel and also past chairman of his Anti-Corruption Foundation, was actually attacked along with teargas as well as a hammer outside his home in Lithuania on March 12. Poland said it detained 3 suspects in connection with the attack, along with Lithuania saying it assumed Russian special solutions were behind the strike." Leonid Nevzlin bought the beating and also kidnapping of Volkov," Navalny's crew mentioned.Nevzlin is the past co-owner of ousted Kremlin critic Mikhail Khodorkovsky's now-defunct oil business Yukos. He migrated to Israel in 2003." Yet Nevzlin was actually miserable along with the result as well as didn't spend the vowed $250,000 for the work," the group claimed, including that it triggered an issue in between the businessman as well as the supposed coordinator of the attack.Navalny's crew claimed it found yourself along with sound and also visual proof of Nevzlin's engagement from an alleged "fixer" named Andrei Matus that was actually reportedly purchased to appropriate the hit man's phones..Crew Navalny claimed it had arranged a meeting along with Matus in Montenegro, where the "fixer" participated in a recording of his telephone call along with Nevzlin affirming the information of the attack on Volkov as well as pair of other strikes on banished opponent participants.Crew Navalny stated Matus "faded away" soon after knowing that they will not have the capacity to spend him for the relevant information. "A few weeks eventually our team viewed his products on the [Kremlin-funded journalist] Russia Today site," Team Navalny mentioned.The Moscow Times can certainly not separately confirm some of the components published on Navalny's site.Team Navalny claimed it thinks "dumb senseless disapproval" integrated with "political competitors" might have driven the assault on Volkov..Nevzlin has certainly not responded to the accusations, which run the risk of steering a much deeper break in Russia's already fragmented opposition.Replying To Team Navalny's complaints against Nevzlin, Khodorkovsky said: " Either it is true, and afterwards Leonid Nevzlin has actually gone mad. Or it is an FSB provocation as well as a counterfeit on which a bunch of cash has actually been actually invested. We have actually seen such provocations more than once, as an example, in the Magnitsky case." Somehow, [Team Navalny private detective] Maria Pevchikh confidently decides on the 1st model. For perfectly easy to understand explanations, I pitch towards the second," he carried on, calling for the charges to become explored by law enforcement.Team Navalny stated it advised the police department of nations where Nevzlin is believed to live as well as was ready to give up its own files." I may not wrap my scalp around this relevant information yet. Khodorkovsky devoted ten years in jail Putin expropriated his multi-billion-dollar service. Considering that 2013, Khodorkovsky was actually a famous vocal in expatriation. (Nevzlin fled to Israel in 2003, when Khodorkovsky's empire was under assault coming from Putin.)," economic expert as well as political analyst Konstantin Sonin created on X (in the past Twitter)." What I can say is actually that @navalny's group has possessed a flawless online reputation in analytical writing. Along with Alexei and afterwards without him, they revealed several critical episodes of [the Putin routine's] shadiness, their impact networks, their armed forces relationships, etc," he composed.
