Billionaire Russian lawmaker Ashot Egiazaryan poses for a portrait in a Washington law office after fleeing Russia, and accusing some of its richest and most influential people of swindling him in a real estate deal. The sensational business dispute between Moscow billionaires spilled across international borders with spy photos snapped surreptitiously of Egiazaryan in Beverly Hills, Calif., a criminal investigation into a hacker break-in at his London law firm, and a federal lawsuit in New York accusing his business rivals of conducting a campaign to force him to return home. Egiazaryan said he'd be killed if forced to return to Russia. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File)
