Judicial Interference Allegations in the Rybolovlev Dispute
June 16, 2026
The case involving Judge Haris Solomonides has been highlighted in the Anti-Corruption Authority's report, which concerns the family dispute between Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev and his ex-wife. Elena Rybolovleva is seeking $4.5 billion from Rybolovlev, and allegations suggest interference in the justice system in the oligarch's favor. Judge Solomonides is alleged to have served his interests through favorable rulings. Additionally, the employment of the judge's wife by the law firm representing Rybolovlev raises further questions. The report raises serious suspicions about the mismanagement of justice in Cyprus.
