The British court ordered the seizure of $4.3 million worth of Bitcoin from crime boss Alexander Surin

ChainCatcher news, a court in the UK has ordered the seizure of approximately $4.3 million worth of Bitcoin from crime boss Alexander Surin (also known as Don Car-Leone) because he failed to prove that these crypto assets were obtained through legal means. This decision was made following an investigation into Surin's financial transactions related to his criminal activities.

Surin fled to Dubai after being convicted of drug trafficking in France in 2015, prior to which a significant portion of his wealth, including luxury cars and properties in London, was confiscated by authorities.
