#342 - The S-Hitmen (The Marriott, Marble Arch, W2)

from Murder Mile UK True Crime

On Sunday 28th of March 2004 at 8.20pm, Police were called to either Room 701 or 703 at The Marriott Hotel at 134 George Street near Marble Arch, London, W1. Concerned for the guest, he was found naked, in the bath, in what looked like it could have been an accident or a suicide. It had all the hallmarks of a professional hit by experienced assassins of the Russian Mafia who were hired to whack-out a rival for the sake of money, revenge or respect. Yet it ended with a cataclysmic cock-up which showed these hitmen to be truly incompetent.Locations: Room 701 or 703, The Marriott Hotel, 134 George Street, Marble Arch, London, W1Date:  Sunday 28th of March 2004 at 8.20pmVictims: Simion Turkov (aka Yermia Yunataev)Culprit: Andrei Melnikov & Michael AntoneliSeven time nominated at the True Crime Awards, Independent Podcast Awards and the British Podcast Awards, Murder Mile is one of the best UK / British true crime podcasts covering only 20 square miles of West London.
