A suspect in the murder of a well-connected Russian businessman who led a billion-ruble liquor store empire says investigators forced him to confess by torturing him, including threats of rape.
In October 2013, masked men kidnapped Oleg Dergilev and his chauffeur, drove them to a forest near the Russian city of Samara, locked the driver in the trunk, and shot Dergilev to death.
Dergilev had built a business empire of more than 270 liquor stores in the south-central Russian Samara region, as well as the Saratov region close to the Kazak border and a small number of stores elsewhere. His liquor store group, named "Vodka," earned revenues of more than 1.3 billion rubles (US$ 22.6 million) in 2009, according to a local media report which dubbed him the King of Vodka.
