Dr Litvinova, a doctor at the Butyrka detention centre in Moscow where Magnitsky was held, was charged in August with causing his death by negligence.

Her superior, Dmitry Kratov, was charged with negligence and is still under investigation.

Hermitage Capital called the decision to drop charges against Dr Litvinova “the latest example of the reluctance within the Russian government to hold anyone accountable” for Magnitsky’s death.

Magnitsky had alleged before his arrest that senior tax and police officials fiddled Hermitage paperwork in order to illegally take over the company’s subsidiaries and claim tax rebates which they pocketed.

The same police officers allegedly engineered his arrest as a means of stifling his revelation.

Last year, the criminal case against Magnitsky was reopened posthumously, supposedly to give his relatives a chance to clear his name. His mother said she did not support the initiative but her attempt to overturn the decision was turned down last week.
