rich United Kingdom Businessman killed in hit and run Ukraine While celebrating his first wedding anniversary, he heard an investigation.
On February 16, 2008, 47-year-old Barry Pring and his wife Ganna Ziuzina were hit by a vehicle (possibly a truck) while waiting for a taxi outside a restaurant in Kiev, and were fatally injured.
The IT consultant is married to Ms. Ziuzina and she is called Anna After meeting online a few months ago, I fell into a whirlwind relationship in 2007.
Mr. Prin’s mother Irene told the investigation Bristol Ms. Ziuzina, now known as Julianna Moore, is a teacher, but was “selling tickets for the show” when they met.
“I didn’t know how they met at the time, but I think he must have met her during a trip,” Mrs. Prin said.
“Barry told us that Anna’s parents are very poor, and she is embarrassed to take Barry home to see them.

“I now know that Barry has started renting an apartment for Anna. What he didn’t tell us was that he met online after Anna posted an advertisement.”
Mrs. Prin said she and her late husband Basil Just days before the wedding in Ukraine in January 2007, she learned that her son was planning to marry Ms. Moore.
She described how she met Ms. Moore for the first time during her visit to German in the summer of 2007.
“I was very surprised to see her so indifferent to Barry. You would think they have been married for many years, not a newlywed couple. She doesn’t love or care about him at all,” she said.
“You would never guess that they have been separated for a few months. There seems to be no spark between Anna and Barry, and they are very one-sided.”
Ms. Prin said that when she saw the couple again at Christmas, Ms. Moore was “very cold” towards her son.
She said she learned of her son’s death from her youngest son Xiao Han, and Ms. Moore contacted Xiao Han by phone from Ukraine.
The family then began to doubt the cause of Mr. Prin’s death.
“We have doubts about what happened the night Barry died. We hired a private investigator and lawyer in Ukraine to find out what happened,” Mrs. Prin said.
“It seems that the initial accident was not thoroughly investigated as it should be, and the police seem to have no doubt about what happened.
“Our investigation tells us that the car that collided with Barry had a fake license plate and was stolen from a parking lot near the apartment Barry rented for Anna before they got married.”

The hearing heard that Mr. Prin was originally from Devon and owned three properties in the London area and one apartment in Kiev. He also co-owned a second apartment in Kiev with Ms. Moore.
Mr. Prin’s 58-year-old brother Sean said that after talking to his brother’s best friend Peter Clifford, he began to believe in fouls.
John McLinden QC, representing Ms. Moore, told Mr. Pring that he was “reckless” to accuse his client of murdering her husband during the 2017 High Court litigation.
When reading Mr. Prin’s High Court statement, Mr. McLinden said: “In fact, Ms. Moore married the deceased for his money and caused his death to get rid of his and her own financial interests. Otherwise, the marriage is very likely. It will come to an end soon.”
The barrister asked: “You mean she did this to your brother and she murdered him? This has always been your accusation.
“Why did she call you to let you know that your brother is dead?”
Mr. Pulin replied: “Because I am the only person she has contact information.”
The barrister asked: “If she murdered him, the next thing to do is to cremate the body and remove the evidence. Why does she need to talk to you?
“If she is the murderer and killed your brother, why do you want to let you know that he is dead?”
Mr. Pulin replied: “I don’t know.”
He went on to say: “That night, I was worried about Ms. Moore at first. I had an intuition and felt something was wrong—just like the way Ms. Moore told me of Barry’s death.
“Very calm, very cold, no emotions, very cold.
“I am going to come to Ukraine right away, because I care about her. Then I had an intuition that something was wrong.
“Mr. Clifford said that my brother might be murdered because of his assets and listed a series of reasons.
“So initially, absolutely not.”
