The Ukrainian government has officially recognized that the estimated $78 million shopping mall in Kyiv is the subject of a so-called raider attack, a property that a state-owned Irish bank has been unable to seize since April 2011 despite controlling more than 90 percent shares in the mall's management company.

A new video released by an Irish newspaper brought to light a new freaky moment in the long story of Ukraina shopping mall in Kyiv, which has been the subject of a raider attack and court disputes for years. The mall's former owner, bankrupt Irish tycoon Sean Quinn Sr. and his family associates, have been accused of using unsavory methods in a desperate attempt to prevent the mall from being seized by creditors, a charge they have always denied.
