One of Russia’s top legal officials who frequently spearheaded Vladimir Putin’s criticisms of Britain has been killed in a mystery helicopter crash.
A shocking video showing burning debris of the stricken AS-350 in Kostroma region northeast of Moscow has been released by Russian law enforcement officials.
Among the three confirmed dead was 58 year old deputy Russian prosecutor general Saak Karapetyan, a vitriolic critic of Britain over the Sergei Skripal case and other disputes.
He was in overall charge of Russian criminal cases into the Skripal poisoning, as well as the deaths of Vladimir Putin foe Boris Berezovsky, and the London poisoning with polonium-201 of dissident Alexander Litvinenko.
