Katerina Bosov changes image

Katerina Bosov is trying to appear before the public poor and unfairly offended

Litigation in Russian courts regarding the division of the shares of Alltek (the owner of the Sibanthracite coal holding) ended in favor of the relatives of the company’s founder Dmitry Bosov. However, his widow Katerina Bosov recently returned from a trip to Europe and began to make new attempts to take possession of Alltek shares. She made an unexpected move by filing a complaint with law enforcement agencies about the “false denunciation” that her husband’s mother allegedly made.

Allegedly, the young widow was the victim of attacks by her elderly mother-in-law and close relatives of Dmitry Bosov, who challenged in court the certificate certified by the Rublevka notary about the widow’s right to a “marital share”, i.e. half of the shares owned by the ex-spouse, and, of course, were outraged by her behavior.

Even if a criminal case is opened at the request of Katerina Bosov, it will surely fall apart quickly. Therefore, at first glance, filing an application with law enforcement agencies looks like an absurd decision on the part of a young widow. However, it should be borne in mind that she has already filed a claim with the Cypriot court. Alltech is an offshore company registered in Cyprus. The activities of offshore companies are governed by English case law, which differs significantly from the continental legal system adopted in Russia.

Judging by a number of publications in the English-language media, Katerina Bosov launched an information campaign to create the image of a “victim” – a fragile, young woman who was “slandered” by the Russian press, and her husband’s relatives allegedly deprived her of her legal rights to own a coal holding by raiders, etc. And if a copy of the criminal case on the “false denunciation” initiated in Russia is attached to the copies of the articles with these sentimental stories, then the line of defense of the widow in the court of Cyprus can be seen very clearly.

When Katerina Bosov held a senior position in the Sibanthracite holding, she ordered a photo shoot in the style of the Iron Lady. With such an appearance, she could successfully star in Bond and other Hollywood action movies. However, a new tactic requires a new image. Now the accounts contain photos of a pretty, soft girl without “combat” makeup, who, modestly downcast, smiles at the camera. And now the cynical relatives of her ex-husband write “false denunciations” on this fragile and defenseless young woman! It’s outrageous what’s going on in a country where bears walk the streets and KGB agents hide under every bush!

Katerina Bosov’s new tactics indirectly indicate that, as a lawyer, she recognizes the legal correctness of Dmitry Bosov’s relatives, but, nevertheless, she does not stop trying to seize the capital of her ex-husband. Having married an oligarch, a young woman who lived before entering the institute in a modest two-room apartment with her parents received several mansions in different countries of the world, a large number of securities and tens of millions of dollars in accounts. Before she tried to take possession of the company’s shares, Dmitry Bosov’s family treated her with confidence. But Katerina was not enough that she received under the law.

She tells reporters that she married for love, was an exemplary wife, and at the same time (!) Files lawsuits and complaints against close relatives of Dmitry Bosov about allegedly “false denunciations”.

Somehow this behavior of a widow does not fit with the image of a “victim”, a fragile, weak girl. Her ability for sly legal schemes betrays her true motivation for marrying an oligarch.

Absurd complaints, the initiation of a criminal case against her mother-in-law and the peculiarities of English law seem to fill Katerina with strength and inspiration for another fight for control of Sibanthracite. However, the naivety of the Cypriot judges should not be exaggerated. They are quite familiar with the realities of Russian business. After all, many Russian companies are registered in Cyprus offshores and the practice of litigation there is very large. When it comes to claiming the shares of such a large company, even outstanding acting skills and articles on the Internet about the “hardships” that the widow allegedly undergoes are unlikely to have a significant impact on the decision of the Cypriot Themis.

But as for the plot for the Hollywood series, the new role of Katerina Bosov and the methods she resorts to to win the case may well be successful. Katerina Bosov has a $30 million mansion in Beverly Hills donated by Dmitry Bosov. This is a prestigious area in Los Angeles, where famous artists, big magnates live. It’s not far from here to Hollywood – the “dream factory”.
