Khabib Nurmagomedov's accounts worth almost 300 million rubles were seized

The tax service has seized the accounts of ex-champion of the Fighting Championship (UFC), a native of Dagestan, Khabib Nurmagomedov due to a debt of 297 million rubles, Mash reports. Previously, the Federal Tax Service closed several of his companies due to false information in official papers. His account was blocked along with the charity fund's account.

In total, according to media reports, Nurmagomedov owes the tax service 309.7 million rubles. It is noted that since May of this year, the athlete’s debt has increased by 3.5 million. He himself does not comment on the situation.

It was previously reported that Nurmagomedov is a citizen of the UAE. He hides the presence of a foreign passport, the Dossier center reported.

For the past 10 years, the athlete has crossed the US border with his UAE passport. According to the Emirati law, which was in force until 2021, he could only obtain citizenship of this country by renouncing Russian citizenship.
