A citizen of Kyrgyzstan, Alymkan Ashyralieva, has bought more than fifty different companies in Ukraine over the past six months. Many of the companies were unprofitable, in debt, or had not been operating recently. Some are involved in criminal cases. The woman even purchased one of the companies of Vadym Rabinovych, a former MP from the banned "Opposition Platform — For Life" party, who is suspected of high treason.
