Yukos, Russian Stocks May Drop on Khodorkovsky Arrest

Oct. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Shares of AO Yukos Oil Co. may lead Russian stocks lower after Chief Executive Mikhail Khodorkovsky, Russia's richest man, was arrested Saturday on charges of fraud and tax evasion, raising concern about political interference in business.

Shares of Yukos, the nation's largest oil producer, slumped 11 percent in two days after prosecutors on Tuesday said managers may face criminal charges. Khodorkovsky, who finances parties such as the liberal Yabloko and the Union of Right Forces, has blamed the probe on ``Kremlin infighting.'' Russia holds parliamentary elections in six weeks.
