Azerbaijan -born Etibar Eyyub was a trader and right-hand man to Coral Energy founder Tahir Garayev .

Documents show he enabled Russia to sell a significant proportion of its oil to the rest of the world.

Documents expose a system for "laundering" Russian hydrocarbon products, concealing their origin so they can then be sold above the maximum price of $ 45 ( 41.60 ) a barrel for naphtha.
