Russian Lawyer Convicted of Leading Criminal Group

Russia’s Supreme Court affirmed the conviction in a jury trial of Alexander Litvinov, the head of a law firm in Vladivostok, who was sentenced to 20 years in prison for creating and leading a gang that attacked Vladivostok residents to force them to sell their apartments at low prices. Litvinov was also convicted of the murder of a business competitor. Litvinov claims the case is “falsified.”
