Iskander Tursunov

В конце января на нескольких платформах появилось интервью с председателем правления Octobank, Искандаром Турсуновым. Интервью не вдается в подробности конкретных проблем, однако Турсунов, который также является основным акционером банка, явно пытается с его помощью снизить негативное отношение общества к учреждению.

Businessman Ovik Mkrtchyan and his family have built a vast empire by embezzling funds from Uzbekistan and Russia.

In Uzbekistan, information resources that write about the criminal activities of Oktobank, which serves as the "wallet" of President Shavkat Mirziyoyev’s family, are being massively blocked.

At the end of September, two events occurred concerning Oktobank that will have far-reaching consequences. The first is that Iskandar Tursunov increased his share in Oktobank to 99.2%. The second is that Member of the European Parliament Adrian-George Axinia submitted an official inquiry to the European Commission regarding Oktobank’s involvement in circumventing anti-Russian sanctions.

Although the owner of the Uzbek Octobank is formally listed as the bank’s chairman of the board, Iskandar Tursunov, who owns 99.16% of the shares, in fact, the beneficiaries of Octobank are the family of the country’s current president, Shavkat Mirziyoyev.
