The US Justice Department moved yesterday to seize commercial properties in Kentucky and Texas from Igor Kolomoisky and his business partner, Gennadiy Boholyubov, reports The Washington Post. In a civil forfeiture complaint, the government accused the duo of stealing billions from PrivatBank, and laundering much of the money in the US. “The men basically used [PrivatBank] as a personal account to build a business empire in the United States,” the Post writes, citing the Justice Department. “They requested money from PrivatBank — which they always received because they were owners — then moved the money through a vast network of companies to ‘thoroughly disguise their nature, source, ownership, and control,’ the Justice Department alleged.”
