    Timofei Musatov, the lawyer of the alleged creator of the BTC-e bitcoin exchange, Alexander Vinnik, may be related to one of the companies through which $ 4 billion in cryptocurrency was laundered. The editor of BlockchainJournal was informed by the owner of the MoneyPolo payment system Sergey Mayzus.

    Since November 2017, Meisus has been upholding in the courts his business reputation, which, he claims, has suffered from allegations of his involvement in the activities of the BTC-e exchange. In particular, he filed a lawsuit in the District Court of the Cyprus city of Limassol for compensation for damage caused to him and his reputation. Initially, he planned to recover damage from Alexander Vinnik and another 16 Cypriot companies.

    “As soon as we notified one of the 17 defendants, which was of the greatest interest to me in terms of promoting the chain of beneficiaries, Edelvace Limited (number 7 in the lawsuit), a copy of the lawsuit together with the transfer were in the hands of Timofey Musatov and RIA Novosti, his assistant to the media . And, of course, with the talking head of Musatov (Vinnik), Notice of Defense was immediately filed – a notice of entry into the proceedings as a defendant, ”said Maysus.

    However, during the year, Musatov sabotaged the trial in every way: the hearings were adjourned, and Vinnik himself did not provide a single document in his defense during this time.

    “Understanding that no property was registered at Vinnik, as well as clearly understanding Musatov’s strategy to make the process infinitely long, I was forced to withdraw my claims personally to Vinnik. Thus, Musatov was denied access to the evidence and documentary base disclosing the criminal activities of the BTC-e exchange. As a result, I won the court, ”said Maysus.

    After that, the businessman began the procedure for recovering damage from the defendants, for which he applied to the Moscow Arbitration Court with a statement on the recognition in Russia of a decision of the Limassol District Court.

    At the request of the court, Sergey Mayzus sent one of the debtors – Canton Business Corporation – a notice translated into English through the DHL postal service. According to him, the debtor received mail.

    “On September 24, a preliminary hearing was held in the arbitration court of Moscow, to which, of course, the debtor did not appear. But !!! … O GODS! A representative of Musatov’s law office crawled to court with a petition to attract Alexander Vinnik as a third party, although he doesn’t appear in the case at all, ” said Sergey Mayzus.

    As the lawyer explained, his application is related to the collection of funds from Canton Business Corporation in the amount of 20.3 million euros and $ 500 thousand.

    According to the text of the petition, Vinnik’s surname appears among the defendants in the suit of Sergei Mayzus, which is why the subject of the dispute affects his legal rights and interests.

    “Based on the foregoing, I ask that A. V. Vinnik enter the arbitration case as a third party, not declaring independent claims regarding the subject of the dispute,” the document says.

    Based on this situation, Maisus suggests that the lawyer Timofei Musatov is directly connected with Canton Business Corporation and Edelvace Limited, and also wants to gain access to the evidence base in the BTC-e case by any means in order to be able to influence the course of the proceedings.

    Recall, in one of the correspondence, the lawyer Timofei Musatov called Sergey Mayzus “his fee” , saying that he had written certain “powers of attorney” that give him the right to collect from Mayzus “all that is possible.” Maizus himself does not know what specific powers of attorney are in question, but he personally saw one signed by Vinnik.

    According to a BlockchainJournal source, lawyer Timofei Musatov puts pressure on his client, Alexander Vinnik, controlling his family. Vinnik himself is still in a Greek prison, where he is awaiting a decision on his extradition, petitioned by three countries: the USA, France and the Russian Federation.
