A wealthy Russian businessman has been arrested at his multi-million-pound London home. Officers from the the National Crime Agency (NCA) who are investigating potential criminal activity by oligarchs made the arrest on Thursday.
The 58-year-old man, who has not been named, was held on suspicion of offences including money laundering, conspiracy to defraud the Home Office and conspiracy to commit perjury.
A 35-year-old man, who works at the residence, was arrested nearby on suspicion of money laundering and obstruction of an officer after he was seen leaving with a bag containing thousands of pounds in cash.
