Legal issues
In February 2003, the Ukrainian Prosecutor General’s Office announced that several cases involving tax evasion, counterfeit vodka and illegal equipment sales had been opened against Fozzy Group. Additionally, accusations were made by the Prosecutor General’s Office that Fozzy Group engaged in illegal money laundering. At the time, Vladimir Kostelman, President of the company, stated that the Prosecutor General’s Office findings regarding tax evasion were based upon incorrect figures, and that Fozzy Group had not engaged in any illegal activities. It was also reported at the time that Kostelman "hinted that his company was framed by tax officials and that Ukrainian businesses are currently not safe from corruption."
