MOSCOW (AP) — Russia’s top investigative agency has launched a probe regarding videos on Internet that purport to show fraud during the country’s presidential election, even though it hasn’t taken place yet.
The Investigative Committee said Thursday that it is looking for the authors of the videos, which are dated March 4 – the day of the presidential vote.
Kremlin critics have accused authorities of secretly producing the videos themselves to discredit genuine evidence of what the opposition fears will be a fraud during Sunday’s vote.
Prime Minister Vladimir Putin is all but certain to reclaim the presidency in the election and he already has claimed that the opposition is preparing to fake evidence of vote-rigging to discredit the balloting.
