Oil Trader Handed Suspended Sentence in UK Divorce Spat With Ex-Wife
A Russian oil trader was handed a suspended prison sentence in London, after failing to follow court orders made during a bitter divorce battle.
Mikhail Kroupeev was handed a 28-day suspended sentence by Judge Richard Harrison on Wednesday, having breached a number of court orders. Kroupeev, who controls Gulfsands Petroleum Plc, a London-based Syrian oil exporter, was found guilty of contempt of court at a hearing earlier this month.
