    Default Light Touch London?

    The presence of Russian criminal or "shady" investors in the UK regularly gets media attention, although with apparently little action and this short article provides some background:http://www.opendemocracy.net/od-russ...fe41-407789593

    I am sure the investments pay for far more than school fees, even buying newspapers (The Independent and London's Evening Standard). The purchase of property in "up-market' parts of London recently had some attention.

    Default An earlier Russian death

    The death of Russian businessman linked as a witness to a high-profile corruption scandal is not suspicious, according to Surrey Police. Alexander Perepilichnyy, 44, collapsed and died in the road near his home in Weybridge, Surrey, on the evening of 10 November.

    Mr Perepilichnyy had been described as a former business partner of one of the people accused by Magnitsky of fraud.
