Berezovsky Died of Hanging Without Struggle, Police Say

Boris Berezovsky, the Russian oligarch who was found dead at his U.K. home on March 23, died from hanging with no evidence of a violent struggle, U.K. police said.

Berezovsky’s cause of death “is consistent with hanging,” Thames Valley Police said yesterday in an e-mailed statement. “The pathologist has found nothing to indicate a violent struggle.” A full inquest into his death will start March 28 in Windsor, near London, police said.
