Felix Medvedev, 41, is suspected of illegal business and money laundering.
Felix Medvedev, a Russian citizen living in Georgia, was charged in the US with running a business without a license and laundering $150 million. This was announced on May 1 by the press service of the US Department of Justice.
According to investigators, the man registered eight companies to transfer more than $150 million in a series of 1,300 transactions. At the same time, established companies do not have the usual business expenses and employees.
“The money was used, among other things, to buy more than $65 million worth of gold bars overseas,” the release said.
A federal jury on April 11 this year indicted 41-year-old Medvedev on 39 counts of money laundering and one count of illegal business.
The case is under investigation by the FBI.
It will be remembered that in 2019, the Finnish police exposed the largest money laundering in the history of the country in the amount of 140 million euros.
