![]() Alimzhan Tokhtakhunov | The U.S. Treasury Department has hit a group of 10 Russians and others connected to a major organized-crime syndicate with new financial sanctions. The syndicate targeted is known as "Thieves-in-Law" which is a widely used Russian term to describe powerful organized-crime figures. The group engaged in money laundering, extortion, bribery, and robbery in Russia, Europe, and the United States for years. Among those targeted was Alimzhan Tokhtakhunov, who had been indicted twice in the United States, once in 2013 and to the scandal-plagued 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. | ![]() |
