Berezovsky executors refuse to execute will

All five people named in the will of Boris Berezovsky as his posthumous executors have refused to act as such. Reports suggest they did so after discovering that the one-time tycoon was financially insolvent.

Berezovsky was 67. He died on March 23rd in his house in Ascot, Berkshire, from what investigators described as strangulation. The interment of his remains took place in Brookwood Cemetery in Surrey last Wednesday.
According to The Times, he wrote a new will 9 days before his death.

Berezovsky was wanted in Russia on a number of criminal charges. Since 2003, he had been hiding in Britain, which granted him asylum.
