According to court documents, Oleg Vladimirovich Deripaska, aka Oleg Mukhamedshin, 52; and Natalia Mikhaylovna Bardakova, aka Natalya Mikhaylovna Bardakova, 45, both citizens of the Russian Federation (Russia), and Olga Shriki, 42, a New Jersey resident and naturalized U.S. citizen, are charged with conspiring to violate U.S. sanctions imposed on Deripaska and one of Deripaska\u2019s corporate entities, Basic Element Limited (Basic Element). <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Shriki is further charged with obstruction of justice based on her alleged deletion of electronic records relating to her participation in Deripaska\u2019s sanctions evasion scheme following receipt of a grand jury subpoena requiring the production of those records. <\/span><\/p>\n

Bardakova is charged with one count of making false statements to agents of the FBI. <\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, Ekaterina Olegovna Voronina, aka Ekaterina Lobanova, 33, is charged with making false statements to agents of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security at the time of Voronina\u2019s attempted entry into the United States to give birth to Deripaska\u2019s child. <\/span><\/p>\n

Shriki was arrested this morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Saint<\/a>\u201cIn the wake of Russia\u2019s unjust and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, I promised the American people that the Justice Department would work to hold accountable those who break our laws and threaten our national security. Today\u2019s charges demonstrate we are keeping that promise,\u201d said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. \u201cThe Justice Department will not stop working to identify, find, and bring to justice those who evade U.S. sanctions in order to enable the Russian regime.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAs today\u2019s charges reveal, while serving the Russian state and energy sector, Oleg Deripaska sought to circumvent U.S. sanctions through lies and deceit to cash in on and benefit from the American way of life,\u201d said Deputy Attorney General Lisa O. Monaco. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Statue<\/a>Adding,\u201cbut shell companies and webs of lies will not shield Deripaska and his cronies from American law enforcement, nor will they protect others who support the Putin regime. The Department of Justice remains dedicated to the global fight against those who aid and abet the Russian war machine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

According to court documents, Deripaska, the owner and controller of Basic Element, a private investment, and management company for Deripaska\u2019s various business interests, was subjected to economic sanctions on April 6, 2018. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"On that day, the U.S. Department of the Treasury\u2019s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated Deripaska as a Specially Designated National (SDN) in connection with its finding that the actions of the Government of the Russian Federation concerning Ukraine constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States (the OFAC Sanctions). <\/span><\/p>\n

In designating Deripaska, OFAC explained that Deripaska was sanctioned for having acted on behalf of a senior official of the Government of the Russian Federation and for operating in the energy sector of the Russian Federation economy.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cToday\u2019s indictment reflects the FBI\u2019s commitment to using all the tools at our disposal to aggressively pursue those who attempt to evade the United States\u2019 economic countermeasures against the Russian government,\u201d said FBI Director Christopher Wray.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe indictment unsealed today signals the United States\u2019 ongoing support for the people of Ukraine in the face of continued Russian belligerence,\u201d said U.S. Attorney Damian Williams for the Southern District of New York. <\/span><\/p>\n

Following his designation by OFAC, Deripaska conspired with others to evade and violate those sanctions in various ways over several years. <\/span><\/p>\n

Deripaska, through the corporate entity Gracetown Inc., illegally utilized the U.S. financial system to maintain and retain three luxury properties in the United States (the U.S. Properties) and further employed Olga Shriki and Natalia Mikhaylovna Bardakova to utilize U.S. financial institutions to provide hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of services for his benefit in the United States. <\/span><\/p>\n

For example, in or about 2019, Shriki facilitated for Deripaska\u2019s benefit the sale of a music studio in California for over $3 million. Deripaska had owned the studio through a series of corporate shell companies that obscured his actual ownership. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Following the sale of the studio, Shriki attempted to expatriate over $3 million in proceeds through one such shell company, Ocean Studios California LLC, to a Russia-based account belonging to another Deripaska company.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bardakova \u2013 largely based in Russia \u2013 directed Shriki to engage in particular illegal transactions on Deripaska\u2019s behalf. <\/span><\/p>\n

These instructions included directing Shriki to obtain U.S. goods and technology for Deripaska. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Moreover, between May 2018 and 2020, Bardakova instructed Shriki to purchase and send flower and gift deliveries on behalf of Deripaska to Deripaska\u2019s social contacts in the United States and Canada. <\/span><\/p>\n

The deliveries included, among others, Easter gift deliveries to a U.S. television host, two flower deliveries to a then-former Canadian Parliament member, and two flower deliveries in 2020 to Voronina while she was in the United States in 2020 to give birth to Deripaska\u2019s child. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"womanThen, in or about 2020, Shriki and Bardakova helped Deripaska\u2019s girlfriend, Voronina, travel from Russia to the United States, so she could give birth to Deripaska\u2019s and Voronina\u2019s child in the United States. <\/span><\/p>\n

Despite Deripaska\u2019s ongoing support for the Russian regime, he funded hundreds of thousands of dollars of transactions so that his child would take advantage of the U.S. health care system and U.S. birthright citizenship. <\/span><\/p>\n

Despite Deripaska\u2019s ongoing support for the Russian regime, Deripaska distrusted the safety of the Russian hospital system. <\/span><\/p>\n

As alleged, Shriki orchestrated the payment of approximately $300,000 worth of U.S. medical care, housing, childcare, and other logistics to support Voronina to give birth in the United States, which resulted in the child receiving U.S. citizenship. <\/span><\/p>\n

As part of this scheme, Deripaska counseled Voronina on obtaining a U.S. visa by telling her to be \u201ccareful\u201d ahead of an interview by U.S. immigration authorities. <\/span><\/p>\n

Voronina thereafter applied for and obtained a U.S. visa for a purported 10-day tourism visit without disclosing her intent to travel and stay in the United States for approximately six months to give birth to Deripaska\u2019s child. <\/span><\/p>\n

Following the birth, Shriki, Bardakova, and Voronina conspired to conceal the name of the child\u2019s true father, Deripaska, going so far as to change the spelling of the child\u2019s last name.<\/span><\/p>\n

Later, in or about 2022, Shriki and Bardakova attempted to facilitate Voronina\u2019s return to the United States to give birth to Deripaska\u2019s and Voronina\u2019s second child. <\/span><\/p>\n

This second attempt included Bardakova and Voronina\u2019s attempt to use false statements to conceal Deripaska\u2019s funding and secure Voronina\u2019s entry into the United States \u2013 an attempt that was thwarted, and Voronina was denied entry and returned immediately to Istanbul, through which she had flown from Russia to the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

Deripaska, Bardakova and Shriki, are charged with one count of conspiring to violate and evade U.S. sanctions in violation of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.<\/span><\/p>\n

They are facing up to 20 years in prison. <\/span><\/p>\n

Shriki is further charged with one count of destruction of records. She is facing up to 20 years in prison. <\/span><\/p>\n

Bardakova and Voronina are each further charged with one count of making false statements to federal agents, which carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison. <\/span><\/p>\n

The indictment also provides notice of the United States intention to forfeit from Deripaska the proceeds of his offense, including the U.S. Properties and the proceeds from the sale of the music studio. <\/span><\/p>\n

The FBI New York Field Office and Counterintelligence Division are investigating the case.<\/span><\/p>\n

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Anden Chow and Vladislav Vainberg are prosecuting the case.<\/span><\/p>\n

On March 2, 2022, the Attorney General announced the launch of Task Force KleptoCapture, an interagency law enforcement task force dedicated to enforcing the sweeping sanctions, export restrictions, and economic countermeasures that the United States has imposed, along with allies and partners, in response to Russia\u2019s unprovoked military invasion of Ukraine. <\/span><\/p>\n

The task force will leverage all the Department\u2019s tools and authorities against efforts to evade or undermine the economic actions taken by the U.S. government in response to Russian military aggression.<\/span><\/p>\n
