Fugitive Russian businessman Yevgeny Chichvarkin...
The body of Lyudmila Chichvarkin was found in her apartment on Leninsky Prospect in western Moscow by a housemaid on Saturday. According to preliminary forensic investigations, the 60-year-old fell and hit her head on the corner of a table.
"The woman suffered from hypertension. She could have lost consciousness and fallen down," a police source said.
Chichvarkin told the Russian News Service that he did not believe his mother"s death was an accident. He added that there had been reports he blamed the Russian authorities, but this was not true.
"I do not blame the security forces for the death of my mother, because as yet I do not know why it happened. But I do not believe it was an accident," the businessman said. "I believe it was murder."
Chichvarkin said he would not come to Russia for the funeral. A prosecutor said earlier on Sunday he would be arrested on arrival.
