☠️ In India🇮🇳, at the request of the U.S.🇺🇸, Alexey Beshchekov, one of the administrators of the cryptocurrency exchange Garantex🇷🇺, was arrested

The arrest occurred following a request from the United States.

➡️ The charges against Beshchekov, who appears to be a Lithuanian🇱🇹 citizen, include money laundering, sanctions violations, and illegal business activity. The U.S. Department of Justice claims that Beshchekov and Russian Alexander Mira Serde were responsible for managing Garantex from 2019 to 2025.

➡️ The alleged administrator was on vacation with his family in India when he was arrested.

➡️ Beshchekov is currently in Delhi, awaiting his extradition to the U.S.

➡️ Reminder: A week ago, Tether, the issuer of the stablecoin USDT, froze cryptocurrencies worth 2.5 billion rubles in Garantex's wallets. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Justice reported the confiscation of Garantex's domains and the freezing of over 26 million USD.
