Moscow Police Raid Offices of Ex-Mayor’s Wife

Armed with machine guns, Moscow police raided the offices of Inteko, a company owned by Yelena Baturina, Russia’s richest woman and the wife of Yury Luzhkov, the recently ousted Moscow mayor. Investigators say some $400 million obtained fraudulently from the Moscow government and from the Bank of Moscow has turned up in Yelena Baturina’s personal bank account. Baturina, who is believed to be in Austria, denies any wrongdoing. “This is just an ordered attack to pressure us,” Baturina said.
