MOSCOW. June 24 (Interfax) - Moscow's Meshchansky District Court has granted a motion from the Russian Prosecutor General's Office for seizing 1.4 billion rubles from former Yukos CEO Mikhail Khodorkovsky (designated as a foreign agent in Russia), former Menatep Group head Platon Lebedev, and the Siberian Leasing Company in favor of the state, an Interfax correspondent reported.
"A motion from the deputy prosecutor general is granted," the court said on Tuesday.
The Prosecutor General's Office filed for seizing around 1 billion rubles and some $2 million from the respondents' accounts in the Trust bank, which the Federal Bailiff Service was unable to collect through the enforcement procedure due to legislation.
