A preliminary probe into the main Yukos case was opened in Russia in 2003. The oil company was accused of tax crimes and declared bankrupt by a Russian court in 2006 with its assets sold at auction as part of the liquidation process.

They achieved control by paying $600m to the government officials who were at that point running Yukos and managing the privatisation process, and by rigging the privatisation auctions. Steven Theede joined Yukos as Chief Operating Officer in 2003 and was President of Yukos-Moscow, the Yukos Executive Management Company. He served as President and the Chief Executive Officer as well as Chairman of the Management Board for Yukos Oil Company between 2004 and 2006.
