The Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) recently obtained judgments against two former CanaFarma Hemp Products Corp. executives for fraudulent offerings..
The SEC in October charged two other CanaFarma executives, Vitaly Fargesen, CanaFarma senior vice president of strategic planning, and Igor Palatnik, the company’s senior vice president of product acquisition, of defrauding investors out of at least $4 million. Fargesen and Palatnik pleaded guilty later that month to two counts of fraud related to the scheme.
