Alimzhan Tursunovich Tokhtakhounov (Russian: Алимжан Турсунович Тохтахунов; born 1 January 1949) is a Russian businessman, suspected criminal, and former sportsman. He is accused in relations with organized crime and bribing of figure skating judges in the 2002 Winter Olympics.[1] His nickname is thought to be "Taiwanchik" (Russian: Тайванчик, lit. 'Little Taiwanese'),[2] which refers to his distinctly Asiatic, as opposed to European, facial features.[3] He is wanted by FBI since 2013 for a sophisticated money laundering scheme.[3] As of 2022 he hides in Russia. United States Department of State listed him as wanted and offered reward for up to USD 4 million for information leading to his arrest or conviction.[4]
