Interfax

The Hermitage Capital Fund says that the Russian Investigations Committee has stopped criminal proceedings against Butyrskiy remand centre doctor Larisa Litvinova, who is accused of causing the death of the fund’s employee, [lawyer] Sergey Magnitskiy, out of negligence.

“Discontinue the criminal proceedings against Larisa Litvinova over her offence of causing death out of negligence as a consequence of the improper performance of her professional duties due to the expiry of the statute of limitations,” Hermitage Capital quoted an excerpt from an investigator’s decree in a message that Interfax received on Monday [9 April].

The quoted document also noted that “Litvinova’s crime was an act of culpable negligence of a minor degree”.

“Litvinova committed shortcomings in offering medical assistance to Sergey Magnitskiy, which led to his death out of negligence,” the decree said.

Interfax does not yet have official confirmation of this information from official Investigations Committee representatives.
