In this Dec. 17, 2013, file photo, Turkish-Iranian businessman Reza Zarrab, who plead guilty in the U.S. for evading sanctions on Iran, is surrounded by members of the media as he arrives at a courthouse in Istanbul in a separate case against him. Halkbank, a state-owned Turkish bank, was criminally charged in an indictment Tuesday, Oct. 15, 2019, with participating in a multibillion-dollar scheme to evade U.S. sanctions against Iran. The charges against Halkbank were announced years after Zarrab, a wealthy gold trader, was arrested in Florida. In a release, U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman said senior bank officials designed and carried out the scheme to move billions of dollars of Iranian oil revenue illegally. (Depo Photos via AP, File)
