KYIV, March 7 (Reuters) - A Ukrainian court has
"arrested" shares owned by billionaire Kostyantyn Zhevago in
iron pellet producer Ferrexpo (FXPO.L) following compensation
claims over his now bankrupt bank, Ukraine's Deposit Guarantee
Fund said on Tuesday.
Zhevago is under investigation in Ukraine on suspicion of
embezzlement and money laundering linked to the disappearance of
$113 million from lender Finance & Credit Bank (F&C), which was
declared bankrupt in 2015.
