The Cypriot police are investigating Roman Abramovich's finances

The Cypriot police have launched an investigation into Roman Abramovich's finances following allegations of document forgery linked to tax evasion. This inquiry was prompted by a BBC Panorama report suggesting that Deloitte may have assisted in concealing Abramovich's wealth. A police representative confirmed that the financial crimes unit is collecting evidence, and the investigation is expected to last several months. Abramovich's lawyers deny any wrongdoing, asserting that there is no evidence he was aware of any document forgery. The investigation is based on leaked documents detailing Abramovich's financial dealings and an offshore company network operating from Cyprus.
