At the request of Russia, businessman Yury Savyak and his business partner Olga Krykanova were detained in Austria.
They are accused of embezzlement by fraud. While Savyak and Krykanova are in the extradition cell in Vienna, the Russian Prosecutor General’s Office is preparing documents for their extradition. At the same time, Yuri Savyak and Olga Krykanova have already found money for bail.
In Russia, several enforcement proceedings have been opened against Savyak from different creditors. Since he formally holds the position of Assistant to the President of the Wrestling Federation of Mikhail Mamiashvili, money is being collected from his salary. Formally, Yury Savyak’s debt is dealt with by the money of the sponsors of the Federation – the state company Alrosa and Russian taxpayers.
CASH DISPUTES BETWEEN FORMER PARTNERS
Yuri Savyak and Olga Krykanova are involved in the case of embezzlement of $1.5 million from the offshore company Positive marketing ltd. It is assumed that businessman Anzor Aksentiev and his civil wife Nadezhda Chernova are behind this firm. Allegedly, they entered into an agreement on joint activities with the Austrian S&I Handels- und Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH. Thus, Yuri Savyak’s company received money to conduct activities in the field of oil and oil products trading. The company had to return this amount a year later with interest. Mikhail Mamiashvili also participated in transactions for the purchase of petroleum products. He initially stated that Savyak was only an intermediary, who was eventually made a defendant in a criminal case.
In the courts, Yuriy Savyak said that he transferred the money he received to the Edena Investments Limited company, which refused to deliver the goods and return the money. The court in Minsk recognized him as a victim in this case. The co-owner of the Belarusian company “Triple” Vladimir Yaprintsev, his son Kazbek Yaprintsev and business partner Alexander Arabyan became guilty.
