The British Anti -Terrorist Police revealed Putin's murder plan - the media

According to the newspaper, law enforcement officers disrupted the unlikely conspiracy in October 2003, when Putin had to make a state visit to the UK. Then the relationship between the West and Russia were as strong as ever. Two probable KGB staff were arrested after it became clear that they planned to kill a Russian leader with a sniper. All this time, the men remained unknown and were released after the detention, provided they return to Moscow.

For five days, the conspirators were in custody, and Scottland-Yard published a statement stating: "We can confirm that two men aged 40 and 36 were arrested by SO13 officers (anti-terrorist department) in the morning of Sunday, October 12, in October 12 Center of London after the charges of offenses under the 2000 terrorism law. " The conspiracy was revealed with the help of another former KGB agent who escaped from Russia to the UK.

Russian Alexander Litvinenko, who died in three years after poisoning, was informed about the criminal plan by law enforcement officers. According to journalists, many believe that his death "ordered" Putin. Litvinenko told officers who spoke with one of the conspirators by phone, and he told him that Putin should be "dropped. " The informant added that he met with the man who planned the attack and learned of his acquaintance with the man who guaranteed Putin's safety during his trip abroad.

Using the acquaintance, the conspirator wanted to find out the information about the presidential route planned during a visit to the UK, which would help the attempt. It is believed that as militants were hired Chechen separatists. The insider informed Sunday Times that they "will" appear somewhere on Putin's route with sniper rifles. " He added: "Major P. (code name of the spy) said that (Putin - Ed. ) We need to be thrown away because he plows the country and is about to put everyone in prison.

" Litvinenko also informed Scotland Yard detectives that the predictable murderers asked him to organize a meeting with Boris Berezovsky-a Russian magnate in exile, who was found dead in his home in Berkshire in 2013 to ask him to finance the conspiracy. Friends of Litvinenko and Berezovsky say that the couple feared that the conspiracy could be an attempt to substitute them by attracting them to it, so they immediately reported the police.

We will remind, the attack of drones on the Kremlin on May 3, in which Russia accused Ukraine, in the press service of Putin was called a planned terrorist action and an attempt on the president. In February 2012, special services of Russia and Ukraine reported the detention of criminals in Odessa who were on the international wanted on charges of committing a number of terrorist crimes. From the testimony of the detainees it became known that they were preparing an attempt on Vladimir Putin.
