Judge Alan Nevas also ordered Aleksander Dubogryzov to forfeit more than $100,000 in cash that authorities seized during the investigation and another $200,000 from the future sale of property he owns in Ellenville, N.Y.

The 45-year-old Dubogryzov will be subject to deportation to the Ukraine after serving his 67-month prison sentence. He lived in Brooklyn, N.Y., before his arrest in Westport in 2006.

A jury convicted him last September of conspiracy to transport for immoral purposes, transporting for immoral purposes and conspiracy to commit money laundering.

Authorities say Dubogryzov and two co-defendants arranged daily to have women, mostly from eastern Europe, transported to his brothels.

He was convicted last September and just now sentenced 9 months later?
