where he spent last years of his life in Ukraine it was registered on the charity fund not on the encourage himself behind that charity a dizzying web of companies based in tax havens around the world I'm will Jordan I've come to Kiev Ukrainian capital al-jazeera's investigative unit has obtained a drive filled with hundreds of documents about Yanukovych's network bank statements contracts and emails from 2011 through the revolution until 2015 they place viktor yanukovych the ultimate Eastern European oligarch at the helm of a global corruption Network this investigation is about how that network still operates today and through one crooked contract we see how oligarchs do business often with the unwitting assistance of Western banks we've called it the quick pace deal unbelievable it sounds like an agreement between criminal bosses you can sign it with your blood by most estimates Yanukovych stole billions Ukrainian investigators traced and froze 1.5 billion a Cyprus based company called quick pace limited pulled 160 million dollars of that in cash and bonds but prosecutors froze this money because it's stolen it can't be legally bought nor sold can't trade it's the point of the season that you can train them as a law yeah I read this document and I understand that it's not a legal document I wouldn't expect any court to enforce such a document just shows the way these guys do business I mean the genius of it really the quick pace deal involves two oligarchs agreeing to buy the company and it's 160 million in frozen assets from a mysterious seller the contract is unsigned but our evidence indicates the deal went ahead they treat quick-paced like buying a bankrupt company and agree a knockdown price of just 30 million dollars they throw in a private jet as part of the payment this is really interesting discovery this is distressed debt basically you get these companies in the city of London who if someone's refusing to pay their debt they buy it for you know 20 p on the pound and then do their utmost to get it back and make a profit on it the oligarchs would make a clean 130 million dollar profit they believe they can unfreeze the assets or as they call it remove the arrests and pocket the money they just need to persuade a judge to lift the freeze if you have influence over the course which you do in a corrupt jurisdiction like Ukraine you can then use that influence to try and release the assets and make your money out of it the majority of judges in Ukraine they are themselves engaged in corruption they are still those appointed under your new popular college we've gathered evidence that establishes which oligarchs are trying to make illicit profits from the quick pace deal we've shown this to investigators including John Benton the former head of the international corruption unit at Britain's National Crime Agency these are really really complex investigations you've got to go through thousands and thousands and thousands of documents it's following the money and working out essentially the route the money takes it appears that quick pace limited was part of a massive embezzlement and money-laundering network under the Yanukovych regime is it legal to be trading frozen assets or to be planning for them moving there's a criminal offense the whole idea is I've frozen Yasir because I think it's the proceeds of crime it's like trading in stolen goods that have been taken by the place you'll put in a cash in the getaway car on you our documents reveal that by a1 in the quick-paced deal is Alexander onishchenko who operates behind offshore company faster load trading limited your typical Ukrainian oligarch oligarchic is the term then most people didn't know 20 years ago it's kind of come out of the Russian system out of the Russian privatization program and these are extremely rich people he loves horses he's a flamboyant oligarchy like spending money on expensive things like they all do he sponsored the Miss Ukraine contest and partied with the stars Pamela Anderson Paris Hilton jean-claude Van Damme initial co like a lot of Ukrainians made money in the gas business I started to produce gas in Ukraine actually they did one of the biggest company in Ukraine that was sold three years ago onishchenko was seeking asylum in Europe and agreed to be interviewed because he believed it would help clear his name at first we didn't say that we knew about the secret quick-paced deal he was happy to talk about his famous friends you know Donald Trump yeah he's doing horse competition in Bambi also he was the owner

Fox and mr. Fox's company Dorchester international London is a favourite destination for many oligarchs and their money London is an international financial center we don't just have the professional services that can be hijacked and used we also have all the trimmings where you might want to spending money in London you can buy anything you buy yourself a mansion in Kensington you buy yourself a note of fine art at Sotheby's you buy us off a yacht at the London Boat Show this building in central London houses a company called Chesterfield group it's what's called a company formation agent a crucial tool for any oligarch such as Pavel Fuchs for a small fee they'll set up a company for you and you can remain anonymous it can be offshore with an address that's not yours the named director won't be you the name secretary won't be you you simply control it in the background while your nominee cutouts protect your identity if anyone ever comes to ask the question they just sort of throw their hands up in the air and say I don't know I was just a nominee director hello is this Chesterfield group I came to ask you some questions about Pavel Fuchs and so effectively you have these cutout characters that D personalized and distance the money from any of the real perpetrators of the situation we emailed and called you but you didn't respond you can create a company in the UK for 13 pounds and it takes you I've done it about nine minutes hello no one checks the information that you provide literally mobile and there are 350,000 companies created by company formation agents in the UK every year this office and Chesterfield group are closely linked to Fox Chesterfields building is owned by a company based in the British Virgin Islands gerbera group bought in 2015 for around five million dollars with a Barclays mortgage gerbera group is owned by Fox's company Dorchester International Chesterfield has branches in Cypress Isle of Man Island the Bahamas and of course London in many cases Dorchester International is the named director if you've got a company formation agent registered and that company formation agent is forming companies for you then that's immediately suspicious is a huge huge alarm bell just a field appears to be a captive company formation agent in other words creating companies for its owner this makes perfect sense I mean if I was not gone I'll do that yeah own your own company formation agent why not sell them to your mates give them a here you go it's like it's like a Christmas present here you go here's a London company with a bank account it's briam in part two we confront Alexander onishchenko one of the buyers of quick pace there is like kind of business that you can buy cheap and to try to to fix the problem to make the money and we reveal a man believed to be the seller of the frozen assets he is unbalanced and unhinged he's a vengeful person unprincipled and ruthless in part one how former ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych stole billions 1.5 billion dollars was frozen we have obtained documents that expose a plot in 2015 to steal again 160 million dollars of that money it's held in a company called quick pace limited it involves two oligarchs Pavel Fuchs and Alexander onishchenko planning to buy quick paces frozen assets at a knockdown price unbelievable it sounds like an agreement between criminal bosses you can sign it with your blood now we reveal where the stolen money is destined and the identity of the reclusive third oligarch believed to be selling the frozen assets he is unbalanced and unhinged he's a vengeful person unprincipled and ruthless the story of our documents takes us back to the heyday of the corruption of Ukraine's former President Yanukovych deeper into one network of his offshore companies it traces the path of hundreds of millions of dollars out of Ukraine from 2011 to his escape in 2014 through foreign bank accounts and into the pockets of Yanukovych and his cronies since Ukraine became independent in 1991 it has been essentially looted by its elites again and again and again and did tactics they use are essentially always identical faceless lawyers accountants and bankers helped pass hundreds of millions of dollars around the network some as loans referenced redistribution of means some as payments for building materials home electronics some for cars motorbikes even parquet flooring the philosophy of money launderers is to create a situation where the money has moved through so many different companies and so many different countries I mean so many different accounts thereby effectively laundering it because nobody has the resources to figure it out while he was still in power the Yanukovych Network used quick-paced to launder money sometimes moving relatively small amounts via complex paths with the help of Western banks one document showed a payment of 4.4 million dollars made by quick pays from its nominal home as a Cyprus registered company the money was held in a quick phase account in Vienna with Austria's meinl Bank it was wired to an account in Frankfurt with commerce back on to Deutsche Bank in New York it ended up at Baltic International Bank in Latvia in the account of a shell company Foxtrot networks Limited Fox tron-like quick pace is registered in Cyprus none of the banks appear to have raised a red flag what's called a suspicious activity report it's very easy for a bank to fill out a suspicious activity report there's actually pressing button the trouble is who's digesting this the suspicious activity reports and the answer is in many cases nobody the documents linking quick-paced to Foxtrot networks internal in quick pace to one of the world's highest profile money laundering scandals it was discovered by Russian accountant Sergei Magnitsky he was working for an investment firm based in Moscow and run by Bill Browder Sergey exposed it he was then arrested tortured and killed in prison the Russian government says Magnitsky died of natural causes and accuses Browder of the fraud Browder claims Russian officials stole 230 million dollars in state funds a huge quarter billion dollar Russian government embezzlement synonymous with injustice and corruption invites a frightening reminder of how quickly money can disappear our documents reveal that Fox Trot networks had been wired money by quick pace in March 2014 we then discovered that Fox Tron was owned by one of the companies at the heart of the Magnitsky affair final limited final limited is one of the central parts of the apparatus it's like the spigot on the pipe final is effectively a nominee company that is the director for a number of very crucial points in this money laundering Network both quick pace and the company at wired money to Foxtrot networks are registered in Cyprus which Ukrainians funnel their money offshore to Cyprus and then onwards beyond and then bring it back again so it looks like foreign investment so you can't really tell he loans it in the quick pace deal another Cyprus company pronto service Limited is named as the seller of the one hundred and sixty million dollars in frozen assets but pronto service is just a cut out and nominees shareholder it owns the assets on paper but the real owner is hiding behind it Christina saris is the named Secretary of pronto service a Cyprus based lawyer and offshore expert Sarah's refused our request for an interview water divulge the name of the person behind pronto service but we tracked her down in a secretly recorded conversation she confirmed to that quick pace had been sold looking at a company called quick pace I remember because he was I'm not was closing and it was an outfit the Cyprus company registry shows quick pace was transferred to one of public Fox's many companies ever more property holdings with the help of his company formation agent Chesterfield the leaked documents also provide evidence that the quick pace deal was done or at least that his first phase began Pavel Fuchs apparently made a payment from a London Bank a transfer two million dollars from Barclays Canary Wharf Deutsche Bank in New York was used to move the money they passed it to an offshore company with an account in Latvia and a mystery owner the money went through no red flags Western banks have had a hard time making money over the last few years so when somebody shows up and says I like to set up an account with a hundred million dollars they're gonna have to look for a pretty good reason not to set up that account other documents in the leak lead us to a British village north of London under British law there's a type of company that allows foreign owners to avoid tax and scrutiny it's called a limited liability partnership companies are brilliant some people call them getaway cars for corrupt Murray I have heard them better described as armor-plated one of the companies is registered here this is the official office of a company worth hundreds of millions of dollars Finkel resources LLP according to bank statements leaked to us Finkel made 328 million dollars in just six months of 2013 but in public accounts filed with UK authorities Finkel claimed it made less than seven thousand it looks like fraud so he came to ask about it the managers at the address of the registered office had refused our request for an interview hello there my name is Bill Jordan my work without jazeera we're doing an investigation into Ukraine this hartfordshire office has registered over 1,500 companies so the people who work here just run a postbox service with the director secretary and address all being proxies finding out who really owns a company can be almost impossible if you own something in your own name then you can just look on the company register on the property register and said oh there you go it's all of his house but if I own that house in a company a British company and if my British company is owned by let's say and a Cypriot company think my Cypriot company is owned by let's say a panamanian company and if my panamanian company is owned by a Nevis company then if you want to find out who owns this house you have to go to every one of those jurisdictions and ask them who owns that company hello hello I wanted to ask about couple of companies thin core resources Finkle resources features in the files it's nominee directors were also involved in the Magnitsky scandal a Latvian citizen called Yuri vit Minh signs the papers for thin core he's just a cutout for the person who really owns and controls the company another director is stan Goran again a cutout whose name is regularly used as a frontman by money launderers these name directors may be paid for their nominee role but are likely ignorant of any fraud the information you've presented is what I call the pipe this is the pipe through which dirty money from Russia Ukraine and other countries in that part of the world all flow through Israel effectively part of the same criminal operation the pipeline leads to Moscow as well as the links with the Magnitsky affair the documents feature hundreds of emails from lawyers based here they're so concerned to conceal the name of their client they write in cryptic language good evening February 26 2015 put the book on the top shelf technical tasks read the book can give a positive review of it counsel the decision of three floors to leave enforce the decision of one and two floors sincerely is it agreed with my supervisor but who is the supervisor we found the answer buried deep in a key document a loan agreement shows quick-paced was used to put up collateral by a company called VTech media invest in order to borrow huge funds in October 2013 their tech belongs to Sergey tkachenko known as the baby-faced gas king of Ukraine by age 27 he was worth 400 million dollars former President Yanukovych apparently treated him like a wallet tkachenko gave cash to the president whenever he needed it he is given control of a chunk of the gastro he made a lot of money for himself and then he cut back most of it then to his political patrons which was you know Yanukovych or Yanukovych his son there's more evidence pointing to tkachenko as the seller a lawyer called Boris Gustav appears in the emails Russian business records show he's director of United Media Holdings the United media used to belong to Sergey tkachenko Putin was just businessmen but I can say very talented corrupt guy because he used the very tricky schemes very unusual schemes to steal money today he's in hiding in Moscow wanted in Ukraine sanctioned in the US and Europe his office is in a skyscraper complex developed by Pavel Fox's companies two of his former drivers told us more about him tkachenko is always asking when we will arrive if you don't answer immediately you'll be fired it was the worst job I ever had he swears he screams at his employees he fires two to three people every month he's very inadequate the drivers are worried that they'll be in danger if their former boss finds out they've been talking to us he is unbalanced and unhinged he's a vengeful person unprincipled and ruthless kochenko's only given three interviews to journalists one was even Golan off a tabula in ambition in

get in position there are five cars 18 people in the convoy the cars are fitted with signal blockers with a 200 meter range the convoy includes armed security tkachenko travels in the second bulletproof vehicle there's a mobile ambulance with a medic there's a fourth vehicle blocking the entrance to the complex and a fifth sweeper car tkachenko had an argument with some Chechen guys in a restaurant after that he stepped up his security tkachenko rushes out glimpsed for a split second before he's inside the building his staff bring his things and the drivers park and wait we often

separatists installs wizards of their past avec de Jujuy an Iranian organs within each corner of next future in most countries you have the government of criminals and yet businessmen in Russia all those distinctions have effectively disappeared it's the interest of Russia to destroy Ukraine from inside it's against the interest of Kremlin for Ukraine to succeed in anti-corruption through the quick-paced deal we've uncovered a plot to profit from the billions stolen by the clan surrounding former ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych a baby-faced billionaire used dozens of lawyers seemingly to turn frozen assets into clean money our evidence was confirmed by one of the fires of QuickBase was one of the businessman turned from the ex government Sergey Kiche that it was wretched yeah for honest Shenko buying assets stolen in a grand corruption case is just another day at the office so there is like kind of business that you can buy cheap and to try to how to say to fix the problem to make the money since about when I revealed that we had the quick pace document onishchenko denied that the deal went ahead there was like normal business but this one has not happened yet within buyer they didn't know they wanted to sell us asset which was already frozen they gave us very good discount but then we check to us like unpossible to unfold exactly they may not yet have made money but our evidence directly contradicts on a Schenker's account that the deal did not go ahead official documents record a change of ownership of quick pace a lawyer in Cyprus said the sale had happened I remember because I was closing Ukraine's anti-corruption Bureau also confirmed the sale Venetian missus resisting businessman of fulsome Luke ability so it never happened never happened at

Notwithstanding other comments Al Jazeera consistently offers well researched, thoughtfully executed, hard-hitting investigative reporting that exposes the inequities in society. They may not turn the critical eye on themselves but when pointed outwards it continues to amaze and surprise with first-rate reporting on subjects most other news outfits dare to touch. A news source not afraid to counter the dominant media groups and their corporate agendas. No wonder they are trying to shut it down. They must be doing something right.

Love that Al Jazeera is investigating Eastern European Oligarchs, but never bothered to investigate the Al Qadea couriers that were giving them the Bin Laden tapes

[u/TheMexicanJuan]

It's not like Qatar's oligarchs have their tentacles in every country and industry. I bet you'll never hear about that in Al Jazeera.
