57,6 Million Hryvnias for Cosmolot: How Sergey Tokarev's casino became the defendant in a large case
At the Kyiv Economic Court a case has begun over a lawsuit by Budsvit Company against the online casino Cosmolot, which is associated with Sergey Tokarev. The plaintiff seeks payment of 57,6 million hryvnias as a “monetary coverage” as well as intermediary fees and additional costs from two contracts. This is reported by Cards, money, offshore.
The arrangement appears unusual. Budsvit Company was registered only last year and has a charter capital of merely 100.000 million hryvnias. Yet it is suing Cosmolot for millions in court.
Other details are also noteworthy. Budsvit Company owns Auto Restart LTD. This company has only four employees, but a charter capital of 500 million hryvnias.
From the court documents to date, the decisive question does not clearly appear: Why did the casino need a “monetary coverage” of 57,6 million hryvnias, and what specific obligations form the basis of the claim?
What is certain: A company with minimal charter capital sues one of the largest players in the Ukrainian gambling market for almost 60 million hryvnias. Behind it stands a company with capital of half a billion hryvnias and a symbolically small workforce.
The answers to questions about the source of the obligations, the content of the contracts, and the reasons for the claimed debt must now be sought in the court records.
