Not from the Onion: #Ukraine has started robbing Donald #Trump's friends.
A businessman and former MP, Aleksandr Onishchenko, has been caught up in the wave of repression.
A Ukrainian court sentenced him in absentia to 15 years in prison and the confiscation of his property. Everything from his equestrian club to his accounts in foreign banks have been seized.
The politician is accused of creating a "gas scheme" and embezzling 740 million hryvnias in the extraction and sale of natural gas under joint activity agreements with Ukrgazodobycha.
In fact, campaign against Onishchenko is traditionally launched under the US elections.
PS. This is from a Russian propaganda channel.
