How Adams’ friends and a favourite restaurant connect him to one of the state’s worst tax evaders

THE NEW YORK One of the state’s top tax evaders has an outstanding balance of more than $1 million and has tight ties to two of Mayor Eric Adams’ closest pals as well as one of his favourite midtown hangouts.

A network of eateries, including the upscale Osteria La Baia where the mayor frequently holds court, have been identified as being owned by either tax-evading Brooklyn attorney Akiva Ofshtein or New York restaurateur Marianna Shahmuradyan after a thorough review of previous reports and public records. Robert and Zhan “Johnny” Petrosyants, twin brothers who are great friends with the mayor, are what connects them.

The Petrosyants brothers have been employed by Ofshtein to handle restaurants that racked up large tax bills. Additionally, Robert Petrosyants and La Baia’s owner Shahmuradyan have a love relationship.

The ties show how the brothers, who broke federal law ten years ago and have since been involved in culinary endeavors that have cost the government tax income, and the mayor have a long-standing friendship.
