DISINFO: British intelligence connected to international terrorism and Litvinenko's murder
SUMMARY
On March 25, 2013, he [Berezovsky] planned to travel to Israel and even bought tickets. But instead of boarding cards, he was given a ticket to heaven. He knew too much about the British intelligence services’ true connections with international terrorists and their role in Litvinenko’s death.
RESPONSE
A conspiracy narrative. No evidence given to link British intelligence to international terrorism. Neither are the accusations made in enough detail to support such a huge claim.
Berezovsky had the status of political refugee in London over unfounded charges in Russia and confrontation with its president Vladimir Putin. A conspiracy theory that he was probably killed by British intelligence is recurrent.
Also, on 21 January 2016, Sir Robert Owen presided over a High-Court inquiry into the death of British citizen/Russian defector, Alexander Litvinenko. A report into Mr. Litvinenko's death was presented. It found that two Russian men, Andrei Lugovoi and Dmitry Kovtun, deliberately poisoned Alexander Litvinenko in London in 2006 by putting a radioactive substance, polonium-210, into his drink at a hotel. The report says that "taking full account of all the evidence and analysis available to me, I find that the FSB operation to kill Mr Litvinenko was probably approved by Mr Patrushev and also by President Putin".
