KIEV. March 24 – The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development has expressed concern about the fact that former owners of Interleaseinvest that earlier had a fleet of 2,400 freight wagons, which the bank later took away under the collateral agreement in court, are fighting for control over the company and the fleet.

Allies of the ex-owner continue fighting for control over Interleaseinvest and the wagons with the EBRD. Their tactics includes abuse of weak points and imperfectness of the judicial system, physical intimidation of persons acting in the legal interests of the EBRD. Recently they used mass media to spread rumors and untrue information about the ownership structure and the role of CREA company belonged to the EBRD and Ukrainian private wagon operator Spetsvahon Transleasing, the Ukrainian representative office of the EBRD told Interfax-Ukraine.
