MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 19th November, 2018) Bill Browder, the CEO of Hermitage Capital Management, had a lot to gain from the death of Sergei Magnitsky, as a means of avoiding exposure, an adviser to the Russian prosecutor general said Monday at a briefing.

"Based on the documents that were shown, an obvious conclusion can be made that, having received a false statement from Magnitsky ... Browder was interested in Sergei Magnitsky's death more than anyone else in order to avoid exposure," Nikolai Atmonyev said.

The Russian Investigative Committee has launched a case on the murder of accomplices of Browder � Valery Kurochkin, Oktay Gasanov and Sergei Korobeinikov � according to Mikhail Aleksandrov, an official with the office of the Russian prosecutor general.

Aleksandrov said that Magnitsky and other accomplices of Browder may have been poisoned by "diverse chemical substances with aluminum compounds."

Aleksandrov added that it "could be assumed with a high degree of probability" that Kurochkin, Gasanov and Korobeinikov "had been killed as a way to get rid of accomplices who may have given testimony exposing Browder."
