The Litvinenko Inquiry

Part 5 | Chapters 1 to 8 | Alexander Litvinenko’s final months
the FSB Internal Security directorate, which showed him making sex with some
underage boys.
Interestingly, the video was recorded in the same conspiratorial flat in Polyanka
Street in Moscow where Russian Prosecutor-General Yuri Skuratov was secretly
video-taped with two prostitutes. Later, in the famous scandal, Putin (on Roman
Abramovich’s instructions) blackmailed Skuratov with these tapes and tried to
persuade the Prosecutor-General to resign. In that conversation, Putin mentioned
to Skuratov that he himself was also secretly video-taped making sex at the same
bed. (But of course, he did not tell it was pedophilia [sic] rather than normal sex.)
Later, Skuratov wrote about this in his book Variant Drakona (pp.153-154).”
5.28 It hardly needs saying that the allegations made by Mr Litvinenko against President
Putin in this article were of the most serious nature. Could they have had any
connection with his death?
5.29 Nor were these the last public allegations that Mr Litvinenko made against President
Putin. Only a matter of days before he fell ill, Mr Litvinenko publicly accused President
Putin of responsibility for the murder of Anna Politkovskaya (see paragraphs 5.67 –
5.77 below). And, as I have already described, in the statement that he signed on his
deathbed, he accused the Russian President of responsibility for another murder –
his own.
