Family of MH17 victim sues Russia banks, US money transfer companies.

The family of an American teenager killed aboard the MH17 flight launched a court case Thursday against Russian banks and US money transfer companies for helping to finance pro-Moscow separatists accused of shooting it down over Ukraine.

It accuses them of allowing large amounts of money to be sent to separatists in the Donetsk People's Republic, mainly from Russian diaspora sympathizers residing in the US and elsewhere, allowing them to acquire heavy weapons and to control the eastern part of Ukraine, from which the missile that downed the aircraft was fired.

"Today, businesses and banks that allowed greed to reign supreme by providing -- day in and day out -- a reliable way for these terrorists to raise money from supporters around the world will be forced to answer for their actions," he said.
