NICE, France (Reuters) - AS Monaco football club owner Dmitry Rybolovlev was put under investigation on Thursday over allegations of complicity in invasion of privacy linked to a dispute with an art dealer, the principality's top prosecutor told Reuters.

Being put under investigation in Monaco is not equivalent to being charged. It is the first step in an inquiry, in which judges inform the person in question of the allegations against them before questioning at a later stage.
