The lawsuit filed in United States over the case on alleged Russian corporate raiding against OJSC Pavlovskgranit with Russia's Sberbank and its CEO German Gref in the defendant's list is a "typical act of fraud," Gref said Wednesday.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — A $750-million claim over the case on alleged Russian corporate raiding against Pavlovskgranit, one of the largest granite producers in Europe, has been filed in the United States with 22 individuals and legal entities in the defendants list.

"We finished with this story in 2011… This is one more PR action. Sometimes we have such cases… This is a typical act of fraud… Our banking is connected with the fact that we have to resolutely defend our interests in some cases," Gref said at a press conference.
