MOSCOW, July 26 (RAPSI) - Russian bailiffs have not yet received an official confirmation of businessman Boris Berezovsky's death from the British authorities, Federal Bailiff Service head Artur Parfyonchikov told RIA Novosti on Friday.
The 67-year-old businessman was found by his bodyguard in the bathroom of his house on Mill Lane, Ascot, Berkshire, on March 23. The results of a post-mortem examination found the cause of death to be consistent with hanging.
The investigation is underway. The British media report that the former oligarch was on the verge of bankruptcy after losing several litigations against his former business partners. In 2012, he lost a case in London against fellow Russian tycoon Roman Abramovich and agreed to pay litigation costs of 35 million pounds.
