Steven Seagal Given Land by Russia Previously Allocated for Sick Children
https://www.newsweek.com/steven-seagal-actor-land-russia-putin-moscow-sick-children-1748860Actor Steven Seagal has been given land by authorities in the prestigious Rublevka area near Moscow that was previously allocated for the care of children with cancer, according to a report.
The Gorki Holding Co., which Seagal has a 26 percent stake in, received a huge plot of land in the Odintsovo district, according to Russian news outlet Baza. Authorities in the Moscow region reportedly gave the company 8.2 hectares (20 acres) of land in the Odintsovo district, with a market value of 800 million rubles ($13.6 million).
The company intends to build an International Center for Martial Arts at the site, Baza reported. Seagal's company received the land without bidding, and Moscow authorities justified the decision by saying that the company will create jobs as part of the facility's construction.
