More on the Litvenyenko angle here but please note the source is anti-Russian. Interestingly, it also says that neighbours thought there flat was being raided by unknown individuals which they assumed were police shortly before their deaths. Police deny they were there. But clearly some one else may have been.
Quote:Did the KGB kill a defected Russian spy and his family in Scotland?

According to British media outlets, 3 Russian nationals - the 43-year-old FSB (KGB) Serykh, his wife, and a 20 year-old son - "fell out" to their death from their apartment on the 15th floor in a Glasgow tower block on Sunday, March 7.
According to their neighbors, there has been a raid by a group of unidentified individuals on their flat prior to the "falling out". The neighbors initially assumed that it had been a police raid but the police categorically deny it.
Earlier, the family of the KGB defector Serykh lived in Canada from November 2000 to November 2007 before travelling to London, where they applied for political asylum. According to the police, Serykh had made a series of interesting testimonies to the British police about the Canadian government.
The family of the KGB officer Serykh came to Glasgow last autumn. The KGB (FSB) officer's family was denied political asylum in Britain after Canada, but their allowance as refugees continued to be paid, and the police had nothing against their further staying in Britain.
They were not deported from Canada but Canadian authorities denied them citizenship, which is typical for Canada in similar cases, with an involvement of former FSB agents. They could always return to Canada, because they had a permanent residence there. That was the reason for the refusal to grant them the political asylum in Britain.
According to Glasgow police, the "falling out" is "a highly unusual case, which they previously had never to deal with".
The Russian media, which is now all under the control of the FSB, falsely reported that the British police considers this case as a suicide, but eventually the police does not think so, at least, while the investigation is under way.
Unlike the KGB media in Russia, the British press describes the murdered FSB officer Serykh and his family as "fall victims", but in no case as suicide victims.
The police did not disclose the full names of the "fallen" victims and waits until they contact close relatives of the "fallen" in order to inform them about the 3 deaths in Glasgow (see photo of police investigating traces on the balcony from which KGB officer and his family "fell").
Meanwhile, the Russian news agencies, without any references, rushed to announce that the father of family allegedly called Esa and he "was afraid of being deported to Russia"
The "fall victims" were tied with a rope. Before they became "fallen victims", a wardrobe had been thrown over the balcony to destroy a protective net intended to prevent suicides. The British press did not report how they managed to throw a heavy wardrobe from the balcony.
Meanwhile, The Times confirmed that Mr Serykh was a FSB officer and a defector who "fell out of the window". The newspaper writes:
"Sergei Serykh had been given refugee status in Canada in 2000 and, in a plot that resembles an airport thriller, had offered his skills as an alleged former member of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) to the Canadian Government, saying he had evidence of a foreign spy network across the country".
He asked for political asylum in Britain in fear of being killed in Canada because of a "deal between Stephen Harper, the Canadian Prime Minister, and the former Russian president Putin", the paper cautiously says, i.e. Sergei Serykh's case actually repeated the Litvinenko's one, when he exposed the Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi as a FSB agent and was poisoned for that with polonium-210 by the KGB by Putin's order.
The defector Sergei Serykh had no problems in Canada from 2000 to 2006. However, in 2006 Stephen Joseph Harper, a former MP from Alberta, became the Prime Minister of Canada.
In 2007, the family Serykh had to flee.
It could be only assumed that Mr Serykh worked in the Canadian Department of the KGB and knew that Mr Harper could be a Russian agent. Similarly, Litvinenko knew that Romano Prodi were an agent of the KGB/FSB and was killed for that.
Mr Harper was born in 1959. In December 2008, he was awarded with a prestigious Jewish International Leadership Award for his support of "Israel" by the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.
