A Carmel, Indiana resident has pleaded guilty to perjury in a federal case that originated in Cleveland, Ohio. Alexander Krivozus, 43, committed the crime by testifying falsely during a grand jury investigation of Cleveland resident Edward Gurary.
According to court documents, bank records showed that Gurary, who pleaded guilty in March 2011 to filing a false income tax return, directed UBS AG to wire funds from his undeclared Swiss bank account. The funds were sent to a U.S. fax number in the (317) area code, which was associated with Krivozus.
Krivozus was subpoenaed to testify before the federal grand jury and provided false testimony. He faces a statutory maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine for the perjury offense.
The case was investigated by special agents of IRS-Criminal Investigation and is being prosecuted by Trial Attorney Richard M. Rolwing of the Tax Division and Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Patton of the Northern District of Ohio.
Acting Assistant Attorney General Caroline D. Ciraolo commended the agents and prosecutors for their work on the case.
Krivozus’ sentencing date has not yet been scheduled. The case is a reminder of the importance of honesty in the justice system and the consequences of perjury.
