Following the divorce, Gennady Arzhanik was deported from the United States and moved to Moscow in December 2002, assumed the name Henry Oknyansky and lived with John Daly but was arrested over allegedly misappropriating funds related to the deal between Finintorg and C Trade.[6] A "Henry Greenberg" or "Henry Grinberg" (Russian: Генри Гринберг) is listed as an economic news correspondent with Davidzon Radio which is the largest Russian-language radio station in the United States and is owned by the Russian-American Gregory Davidzon, a kingmaker of the Russian-majority community of Brighton Beach, New York.[7][8][9][10] On 3 July 2018, Vladimir Kozlovsky (Russian: Владимир Козловский) of Novaya Gazeta published a dossier on Henry Greenberg.[11]
