According to ChainCatcher news, a UK court has ordered the seizure of approximately $4.3 million worth of Bitcoin belonging to criminal boss Alexander Surin (also known as Don Car-Leone), as he was unable to prove that these crypto-assets were obtained through legal means. This decision was made after an investigation into Surin's financial transactions, which were related to his criminal activities.
Surin was convicted of drug trafficking in France in 2015 and fled to Dubai, where his vast wealth, including luxury cars and properties in London, had previously been confiscated by the authorities.
