Abramovich's properties were illegally searched in Jersey

Reuters published a legal document where is stated that police in Jersey have admitted they carried out illegal searches of buildings allegedly linked to Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich and have agreed to pay damages and apologize. 

After the Russian military invaded Ukraine on February 24 at the behest of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the West imposed the toughest sanctions on Russian officials and business people, freezing hundreds of billions of dollars in assets.

On April 12, the Jersey court decided to freeze assets worth 7 billion dollars related to Abramovich.
