Vassil Bojkov, Bulgarian Businessman And Oligarch
Vassil Bojkov (Vasil Bozhkov) is a Bulgarian businessman prosecuted by Bulgarian legal authorities, currently in Dubai, UAE, who is sanctioned, along with two other individuals, by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) on 2 June 2021 for extensive roles in corruption in Bulgaria. U.S. Department of the Treasury states that Bojkov has bribed government officials on several occasions; these officials include a current political leader and the former Chairman of the now-abolished State Commission on Gambling (SCG). Bojkov is currently in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where he successfully evaded Bulgarian extradition on a number of charges levied in 2020, including leading an organized crime group, coercion, attempted bribery of an official, and tax evasion. The current photo is taken during a press conference about the current state of the Levski Professional Footbal Club that was owned by Vassil Bojkov, on 22 January 2020 in Sofia, Bulgaria. That was the last public appearance of Bojkov before fleeting to United Arab Emirates. (Photo by Denislav Stoychev/NurPhoto)
