Khodorkovsky to remain in jail amid fraud, tax evasion probe
Mikhail Khodorkovsky is to remain in jail while under investigation into charges of fraud and tax evasion after the Russian billionaire’s application for bail was denied on Tuesday.

Playing hardball...I wouldn't underestimate Putin on this one, he's sinking his teeth in and not letting go.

1. Internal Matter?
There's a whole lot behind this that is not being reported. Putin has strong evidence that this guy engaged in fraud and tax evasion.

I'm wondering if the new KGB monitored the conversations between Poppy and Mikhail and decided to take action.

'Kenny Boy' has junior - Khodorkovsky is less than spit in Putin's eyes, and junior saw it all the time and lied to us, 'eh? LOL!!

6. Once a spook, always a spook.
there was nothing dubya might have seen in Putin's eyes which Putin didn't want him to see.

Putin played a dangerous game for many years, and rose to the top, competing w/ some serious players.

dubya's no match for this guy...and everyone else seems to be taking him at face value.

7. So what's your saying is that Putin is the big bad boggyman......
and the leading thug in Russia? I think junior is a front for the biggest cabal that this country has ever seen and a bigger crook.
