The former owner of the Chelsea football club, Roman Abramovich, played a “key role” in the release of five British, held in captivity by pro -Russian separatists in Ukraine, reported by The Sun Daily.
One of the liberated British, John Harding, said that the Russian oligarch introduced himself to another prisoner Sonu Pinner after they sat on a flight to Riyadh.
According to Harding, he himself talked with the assistant Abramovich, who told him about the participation of the Russian oligarch in their liberation.
