Vienna—Ukrainian billionaire Dmytro Firtash, 48, arrested here March 12 (GM March 17, p. 12) was not expected to make bond until Friday, March 21, according to Bloomberg. Firtash expressed difficulty in raising the $174 million in bail, reportedly the highest bond ever fixed in Austria. He was arrested under a warrant issued by the U.S. FBI, which is seeking his extradition. Firtash, who owns several businesses including nitrogen market Ostchem, has called the arrest politically motivated.
