Russian police have found a skull in a long-running macabre murder hunt for a Bolshoi Theatre ballerina believed to have been killed after she was 'blackmailed' over her 'erotic' photographs. Olga Demina, then 25, vanished presumed dead almost five years ago but no human remains were found until this new 'breakthrough'. Police say they found a skull close to the position where Dzhavoev's mobile signal was registered on the night Demina went missing. In the week she vanished, Dzhavoev drove the ballerina to and from another city in August 2014 where she reportedly performed at a private party for a wealthy businessman. 'We have information that Olga Demina was long dreaming of leaving Russia and arranging her personal life abroad,' said a member of his legal team.
