 Surrey police are investigating and are currently treating his death as suspicious.He is thought to have died of a suspected heart attack and a post mortem will be carried out later today. The oligarch, who made his £6 billion fortune in his native Georgia, said recently of his political enemies: “I believe they want to kill me.”  He had said in December that he had 120 bodyguards but did not feel safe anywhere. Lord Goldsmith, the former Attorney General, who was acting for Mr Patarkatsishvili, said he was taking the death threats “very seriously”.

Mr Patarkatsishvili had claimed he had obtained a tape recording of an official in his country’s interior ministry asking a Chechen warlord to murder him while he was London.
