Report: Russian lawyer was beaten to death

UPI.com

The lawyer for what was once Russia’s largest foreign investment fund was beaten to death by prison guards and did not die of natural causes, a report said.

The report by employer Hermitage Capital concludes Sergei Magnitsky, 37, was left to die in his cell in 2009 after suffering brain trauma from a beating, The Moscow Times reported Tuesday.

The 75-page document includes morgue photos taken of Magnitsky showing bruises on his wrists and legs.

It reproduces what it said is a photocopied order from the head of the facility where Magnitsky was being held directing guards to beat him with a rubber baton.

Magnitsky, who accused officials of stealing $230 million in government money, was awaiting trial on tax charges at the time of his death.

Two prison doctors have been charged with his death.

The Hermitage report has been given to Russia’s Investigative Committee.

The Kremlin’s human rights council has backed the report but government officials have not issued any comments. hairy woman hairy girl https://zp-pdl.com/emergency-payday-loans.php https://zp-pdl.com/apply-for-payday-loan-online.php микрозаймы онлайн

Report: Lawyer Beaten to Death

The Moscow Times

New evidence released Monday added weight to suspicions that Hermitage Capital lawyer Sergei Magnitsky was beaten to death by prison guards in 2009 and did not die from health problems as previously claimed by the authorities.

A report by Hermitage Capital, once Russia’s largest foreign investment fund, found that the 37-year-old lawyer was left to die on a cell floor after suffering a brain trauma in the beating apparently ordered by prison officials.

The report, which runs at 75 pages in English and 100 pages in Russian, offers gruesome photos from the morgue that depict bad bruises on what it says are Magnitsky’s wrists and legs.
