This may be one of the articles you were referring to, but it is significant 
in that it reports TS Kelso from Celestrak as having analysed the 
possibility of a collision and having come up with it being  a possibility 
but with some measure of doubt:

Therefore the mention of Cosmos 1275 being a possible culprit is reasonably 
authoritative.

Short of an observation (which seems unlikely) or any official announcement 
it seems this may be the best that can be done.
