Petukhov’s attorneys responded that the allegations were false, as able-bodied as “scandalous and impertinent.” They additionally submitted a accounting annual from addition Yasenevo shareholder, Sergey Kisilev, who said the aggregation did not accredit the Florida accusation and that the allegations were the aftereffect of a battle amid Gornostaev and Petukhov, aforetime hunting buddies who vacationed calm with their families, over who would ascendancy the company.
