MOSCOW, December 5 (RAPSI) – The Moscow Commercial Court has extended for six months the term of asset disposition as part of a bankruptcy procedure against Carlo Pazolini shoe retailer Ilya Reznik, according to court records.

On December 5, 2018, the court declared Reznik bankrupt.

On April 6, 2017, the court initiated the procedure of debt restructure against Reznik on ATB Bank’s request. On April 14, Alfa Bank filed an application seeking to include a 1.9-billion-ruble debt ($33.6 million) on the list. On May 31, several Russian companies and banks filed six applications with the Moscow Commercial Court asking to include 5.5 billion rubles (about $97.1 million) owed by Reznik on the list of creditors' claims.
