2 Mar 2026 Autohandel aus dem Landkreis Miltenberg (Inhaber Andreas M.)Six years' imprisonment for car dealer: 111 luxury vehicles to Russia despite embargo GermanyBreaches of sanctions and embargoes €20m

A car dealer from the Bavarian Lower Main region specialising in armoured and luxury vehicles brought 111 vehicles worth almost 20 million EUR to Russia, and around 400 further vehicles were planned. The white-collar crime chamber of the Würzburg Regional Court (Landgericht Würzburg) sentenced the owner to six years' imprisonment and the former authorised signatory (Prokuristin) to two years suspended, and ordered the confiscation of around 20 million EUR; the judgment is not final.

What organisations can take from it

Bans on luxury goods to Russia are enforced with long prison sentences and confiscation of assets; authorised signatories are also personally liable.
