The Russian General Prosecutor’s Office has sent a suit filed against managers of the NEFTYANOI bank controlled by Russian entrepreneur Igor Linshits to the court. Top managers stand accused of illegal bank activities and money laundering. The Prosecutor’s Office accused Linshits of money laundering and put him on the federal wanted list back in early 2006. In March 2006, the Moscow Basmanny District Court issued an arrest warrant and Linshits’ assets were seized. The case for six top managers was headed to the court. Unofficial reports say individual proceedings have been instigated against Igor Linshits because he is currently on the wanted list.
