A book entitled ‘The Life and Fate of Mikhail Khodorkovsky’ by Natalya Tochilnikova was published in Russia earlier this month.

Previously some chapters of the book called ‘Khodorkovsky: Not guilty!’ were published in March 2013, but following readers’ interest and successful sales, the Algorithm publishing house decided to launch the full version.

The launch took place at the Moscow International Book Fair where author Tochilnikova commented on Khodorkovsy’s future:  “Perhaps I’m wrong, but I want to be optimistic. I believe that there won’t be a third case, because there is simply not enough time for them to fabricate it.   All the statutes of limitation will pass and that would be it. It’s one year left for Khodorkovsky and Lebedev.”
