Konstantin Mrykhin is wanted in his native Russia on charges of involuntary manslaughter

Konstantin Mrykhin is wanted in his native Russia on charges of involuntary manslaughter in connection with a blaze that tore through the Lame Horse night club in Perm 700 miles east of Moscow.
The fire was sparked by an indoor fireworks display that went wrong killing 156 people and leaving a further 65 with serious injuries.Illegal building work inside the club and flagrant breaches of fire safety regulations meant that revellers could not evacuate quickly enough and died of smoke inhalation or were burnt alive.
The Russian police believe that Mr Mrykhin, the club’s co-founder, was criminally negligent in sanctioning the fireworks show and want to try him in Russia along with eight other people.
A court in Barcelona where Mr Mrykhin was arrested will now consider a Russian extradition request.
Fire safety is notoriously lax in Russia and there were more than 6,711 fire-related deaths registered in the first half of this year alone.
If convicted, he could be sentenced to ten years in jail.
