Poland mentioned it jailed three suspects among the attack, along with Lithuania claiming it assumed Russian unique solutions lagged the attack." Leonid Nevzlin bought the whipping and kidnapping of Volkov," Navalny's team stated.Nevzlin is actually the previous co-owner of exiled Kremlin movie critic Mikhail Khodorkovsky's now-defunct oil business Yukos. He moved abroad to Israel in 2003." Yet Nevzlin was actually dissatisfied along with the result and also didn't pay out the vowed $250,000 for the job," the group claimed, including that it brought about a conflict between the business person as well as the supposed coordinator of the spell.Navalny's staff mentioned it wound up along with audio and aesthetic documentation of Nevzlin's participation coming from an alleged "fixer" named Andrei Matus that was actually apparently gotten to appropriate the hit man's phones..Staff Navalny mentioned it had actually set up a meeting along with Matus in Montenegro, where the "fixer" participated in a recording of his phone conversation along with Nevzlin proving the information of the assault on Volkov and also 2 various other attacks on ousted opposition participants.Staff Navalny said Matus "went away" right after learning that they will not be able to spend him for the info.
