U.S. releases first Magnitsky Act sanctions list, Russia retaliates

The U.S. Friday published the names of Russians subject to travel bans and asset freezes under the Magnitsky Act.

The Treasury Department’s initial list included 18 names. Most have been implicated in the jailing and death of Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky. He died in custody in 2009 after uncovering a $230 million tax fraud against the Russian treasury.

A second list of Russians banned from entering the United States was classified, the State Department said.

The Russian government has said Magnitsky died of natural causes while in jail.

The Magnitsky Act was adopted last year. It imposes visa sanctions and asset freezes on those responsible for the 36-year-old lawyer’s detention, abuse, or death, those who concealed the his mistreatment, or were involved in or benefited from the criminal conspiracy he uncovered.

After the U.S. announcement Friday, Russia also released a list of 18 American officials barred from traveling to Russia.

The Russian list included two former heads of the Guantanamo Bay detention facility.
