Scotland Yard probes ‘unexplained’ death of Russian in exile

| | London

A Russian man living in exile in the UK and a critic of President Vladimir Putin has been found dead in his London home, prompting Scotland Yard to launch a probe into the “unexplained” death.

Nikolai Glushkov was found dead by his family and friends late Monday night and the cause of death is not yet determined.

The 68-year-old was a close friend of late Russian oligarch Boris Beresovsky, an opponent of Russian President Putin.
