    Bashneft ownership and Sistema legal controversy

    The seizure of Sistema's controlling interest in Bashneft followed the detention of Sistema chairman Vladimir Yevtushenkov. Yevtushenkov was later released after the company entered state ownership, while reports said the charges against him had not been proven. The episode also involved scrutiny of the earlier privatization and reports that former regional official Ural Rakhimov had left Russia.
