Scandal over rumored poisoning of Russian tycoon
Meanwhile, a thriller starring the Russian tycoon has been ongoing since yesterday, who, according to a Wall Street Journal report, developed symptoms of poisoning after a meeting in Kiev in March.
The US media caused an uproar by raising questions about who was behind possible poisoning of Abramovich and Ukrainian negotiators but the information that has since seen the light of day is conflicting with the Kremlin refusing to comment officially and US sources claiming their illness was due to environmental reasons.
According to the WSJ report, the Russian oligarch had red eyes, tears and peeling skin on his face and hands.
