Macbeth. He implies this in his curiously diplomatic and indirect speech in Act 3 Scene 6. "And the right-valiant Banquo walked too late, whom you may say, if't please you, Fleance kill'd. Men must not walk too late." He's saying "You might think that Fleance killed Banquo, but if you think about it, it wasn't convenient for Fleance at all but it sure was for Macbeth. So you might think Fleance is a murderer, but if he was under Macbeth's protection I have a pretty good idea who would end up dead."
