Yazı boyutu
The men targeted a car and two properties linked to Starmer over three nights in May 2025 on the orders of a Russian-speaking figure going by the name of “El Money”, according to prosecutors.
El Money communicated on the messaging app Telegram with Lavrynovych. Their identity was never revealed and they were not charged.
The court heard how Carpuic was a middleman tasked with arranging payment – which never came – and recruiting someone to film the fires.
Addressing Lavrynovych in the dock, Justice Neil Garnham said he agreed to carry out this “mindless piece of arson for money”.
