A Russian energy boss has become the latest to be found dead in mysterious circumstances since the start of the invasion of Ukraine.
Igor Shkurko, deputy general director of firm Yakutskenergo, was discovered in his cell in a detention centre in Yakutsk, Siberia.
The 49-year-old dad of two sons had been accused of taking a £5,000 bribe and the day before his death had submitted appeals against what he claimed was an “unjust allegation”.
