Black Widow is living like Queen of Sheba Family fury as they spend £200k to get justice for murdered Brit
THE family of millionaire Barry Pring have hit out at police after the widow they claim plotted his murder was found living like “the Queen of Sheba” in Spain.
An inquest confirmed this week that the Brit, 47, was unlawfully killed in 2008 when a car with stolen plates mowed him down at 80mph in Ukraine.
The businessman – who owned five properties and was worth £ 1.5million – had met former lapdancer Anna Ziuzina, 38, online in 2006 and they married in her home country in 2007.
Ahead of the inquest, her whereabouts were not known and the family have spent £200,000 on private investigators in a bid for justice.
They were enraged to discover that a few years after winning legal aid to fight for cash from Barry’s estate, she is now living in a £700,000 Marbella villa with her new love – fashion mogul Ivan Lister, 48.
Corrupt
Barry’s brother Shaughan Pring, 54, said: “She’s living like the Queen of Sheba. The case is open but the Ukrainian police are doing f*** all. They are corrupt. It was only because we pursued it that they reluctantly started to do something.”
He added: “A British subject has been murdered and the person who did it got legal aid to try to claim his assets. It was like rubbing salt in the wound.”
The Exeter inquest ruled Barry was tricked into standing by a dual carriageway moments before he was hit. His pal Peter Clifford told the hearing he was totally under the influence of his wife – dubbed the Black Widow. He added: “There’s no doubt in my mind Barry was murdered, nor that Ziuzina arranged, or was complicit in, his murder.”
Shaughan said he and mother Irene will not be happy until Barry’s killer is jailed. Calling on the PM to press Kiev, he added: “The Government have been weak. They’ve made a few noises when we kicked their backside.”
The Foreign Office said it has given “support and advice”.
