BORIS BEREZOVSKY WOULD HAVE BEEN SIXTY-EIGHT TODAY

BORIS BEREZOVSKY 
January 23, 1946-March 23, 2013 


pictured at the height of 
his powers in Russia; 
died in exile in the U.K., 
an apparent suicide 

Why did he do it? 

Some contemporaneous reporting on the investigation into his death, including video of his house, here; three long appreciations, here, here, and here. 

Gone, but still in the courts. A week ago, and almost ten months after his death, the British High Court of Justice granted Aeroflot the right to appeal a case against Berezovsky (here).
