OLIGARCH LUXURY: While US prosecutors battle with billionaire Igor Kolomoisky over his US real estate empire, his superyacht -- the Lauren L -- is moored near Bulgaria's Black Sea. The weekly charter rate is $732,000, complete with movie theatre, gym, library, pool, massage room.
Meanwhile, prosecutors continue to wage a legal battle to seize his US real estate, including two sprawling office parks in Dallas and a 31-story office tower in the heart of downtown Louisville. #fraud #oligarch
