HALISTER1: U.K. Inquest Into Death of Russian Whistle-Blower Facing Delay

U.K. Inquest Into Death of Russian Whistle-Blower Facing Delay

(Bloomberg) -- Probe into death of Russian national Alexander Perepilichnyy in the U.K. likely delayed until 2017 on administrative issues concerning national security, a U.K. coroner said. • Inquest into 2012 death was scheduled to start Sept. 13
  • Inquest could be split into two separate hearings, lawyers for Surrey police and the family say
• Traces of a rare poison were found in Perepilichnyy’s stomach, triggering a more thorough probe, coroner Richard Travers says at hearing Tuesday in Woking, a town just outside of London • Hermitage Capital’s Bill Browder believes Perepilichnyy was murdered for his role in a Swiss money laundering probe connected to the murder of Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky
