Boris Berezovsky died by hanging, police say
LONDON. March 26. KAZINFORM A post-mortem examination has found Russian tycoon Boris Berezovsky's death was "consistent with hanging", police have said.
Mr Berezovsky, 67, was found dead by an employee on Saturday on a bathroom floor at his home in Berkshire.
The examination found nothing to indicate a violent struggle. More tests are to be carried out on the body.
Thames Valley Police said investigations at the property would continue for several days.
They had earlier said there was no evidence so far that a "third party" was involved.
Mr Berezovsky's body was removed from the property in Mill Lane, Ascot overnight on Sunday, Kazinform has learnt from BBC News.
The results of further tests, including toxicology and histology examinations, were likely to take several weeks, police said.
