MOSCOW, November 29 (Itar-Tass) - Moscow's Savyolovsky court on Thursday found businessman Boris Berezovsky guilty of stealing 215 million roubles belonging to the Aeroflot company, and sentenced him to six years in jail.

The court dropped the money laundering charge as it concluded that Berezovsky himself had been the recipient of the stolen money, together with Aeroflot's former deputy director general Nikolai Glushkov.
