US moves to seize 2 Abramovich jets over Russia sanctions
The U.S. obtained a warrant to seize two jets owned or controlled by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, as tensions between Washington and Moscow increase.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Sarah L. Cave on Monday signed a warrant of seizure for a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner and a Gulfstream G650ER, according to documents released by Manhattan U.S. Attorney Damian Williams’ office. Cave found probable cause that the aircraft are subject to seizure and forfeiture, she said in the two-page document.
