The British government will soon put forward proposals to stop Russian oligarchs using its court system to sue those seeking to shine a light on corruption, Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab said on Friday.
"We've seen oligarchs and technocrats and those with links to (Russian President Vladimir) Putin, coming into this country and suing under our libel laws those who are shining a light, whether it's authors or NGOs, ... on corruption and abuse, and that is an abuse of our system," Raab, who is also justice minister, told BBC Television.
