The assets of the water company “Morshinskaya” were seized for 50 million

The court seized shares and funds worth UAH 53.4 million in a company producing and selling mineral water owned by Russian oligarch Mikhail Friedman.

This was reported by the press service of the Bureau of Economic Security.

The investigation established that the company is owned by a Russian oligarch through Cypriot companies. Although the BEB does not name him, according to the EP, it is Mikhail Friedman, a Russian oligarch under US, EU and British sanctions.

In Ukraine, Friedman, with his partners Herman Khan and Piotr Aven, owns IDS Group Ukraine, a “daughter” of IDS Borjomi International (part of the Alpha Group). In the market, in addition to the fact that the company is the exclusive importer of Borjomi water in Ukraine, it is represented by a number of brands, in particular, Morshynska and Myrhorodska waters.

Thus, according to the investigation, Friedman and his partners tried to avoid possible sanctions and nationalization of assets, so under fictitious agreements they planned to withdraw from their property assets located in Ukraine.

The decision of the investigating judge seized the company’s corporate rights in the form of securities and cash, which are shares of the authorized capital of the company in the total amount of UAH 53.4 million. According to the EP, it is a water producer “Morshinskaya”. This was reported by Economic Truth.

Thus, according to BEB, the attempt to withdraw assets from the property of the Russian oligarch is biased.

The pre-trial investigation in the criminal proceedings on the fact of money laundering of property obtained by Friedman and partners is conducted by BEB detectives under the procedural guidance of prosecutors of the Office of the Prosecutor General.

We remind you:

Friedman’s other business in Ukraine, Alfa-Bank Ukraine, is currently under pre-trial investigation into the legalization of criminal assets. Earlier, the court imposed a number of arrests on the funds of Friedman’s offshores and partners – in particular, in the amount of UAH 12.4 billion and UAH 470 million.
