consortiumnews | “They
put him into a straight-jacket, put him into an isolation room and
waited outside the door for 1hr18 minutes until he died.”
He
invented the beating death in 2011 when he decided to create and lobby
for the Magnitsky Act in the U.S. Congress to stop Russian authorities
from pursuing him for $100 million in evaded taxes and illicit stock
buys.
Ironically,
though he uses the U.S. to build a wall against Russian tax collectors,
he gave up his American citizenship in 1998 to avoid paying taxes. He
is listed by CBS News as a “tax expatriate.”
If you are serious lawyers and investigators, you will examine the evidence and respond. (And change your story.)
The
rest of the op ed is to support unspecified steps to hold to account
those who benefit from human rights abuses and corruption. No mention of
the persecutors of Julian Assange or the beneficiaries of the U.K.’s
worldwide system of tax havens. The real purpose appears to be to repeat
the Browder hoax in the lead.
I sent copies of the article to Brandon and Bailin. No response.
I also sent a complaint to IPSO the British Independent Press Standards Organization.
It
calls itself ” the independent regulator of most of the UK’s newspapers
and magazines.” It says: We hold newspapers and magazines to account
for their actions, protect individual rights, uphold high standards of
journalism and help to maintain freedom of expression for the press.

This op ed article is based on egregiously fake facts. See this story and the links for the evidence. I have sent it to the authors. They should retract the story. https://www.thekomisarscoop.com/2019/10/london-times-runs-fake-browder-story-by-acolytes-ben-brandon-alex-bailin/
