Michail Shimonov, 23, a student of finance at a local Manhattan college and well-known party promoter, was arrested while entering Suzie Wong’s last Saturday evening. At the time, Shimonov had 88 pills of Ecstasy on him.
Shimonov was one of eight dealers busted for selling E, Ketamine (Special K) and GHB. He would sell the pills to Albert Kim, 24, for near $8 a pill, and then Kim would turn them for about $25 to clubgoers. Kim would net close to $10,000 in a weekend.
Each of the dealers misguidedly sold to undercover agents at Pacha and Rebel during an eight month investigation.
