She was his princess. He could never do anything to harm them. I don’t know what happened that night, but I know that my dad did not hurt them.”.Fedor has been told by the police not to discuss the case in public..The violent deaths have the tight-knit Russian community reeling in the resort of Lloret de Mar, Spain, where the Protosenyas had a family holiday home..A close friend of the Russian oligarch, businessman Anatoly Timoshenko, told MailOnline: “Sergey did not do it. Sergey did not kill his family. It is impossible. I do not want to discuss what may have happened at the house that night, but I know that Sergey is not a killer.”.Another friend, Roman Yuravich added: “Sergey did not kill his family. I have known him for 10 years. He was a happy man. He loved his family. He did not kill his wife and child.
