An enemy of Vladimir Putin is fearing for his life after being sent a bullet and a vile death threat in the post.
The sinister letter to former FSB spy Boris Karpichkov, which gave the sender’s address as London’s Putney Vale crematorium, began: “Die, you scum. You will soon die writhing in terrible torment.”
He believes neither the police nor MI5 can protect him, claiming they have done little to protect him when similar threats arrived.
