Ex-Trump Associate Felix Sater Loses Money-Laundering Trial
Sater was accused of helping Ilyas Khrapunov launder a portion of $6 bil, allegedly looted from BTA bank by his father-in-law Mukhtar Ablyazov, through US real estate including Trump Soho condos.
A federal jury in Manhattan issued the verdict Wednesday in favor of the city of Almaty, Kazakhstan and BTA Bank, awarding more than $32 million in damages, including interest.
