of what Michael Cohen's testimony to Congress said:

"I have no evidence that Trump colluded with Russia, but I have my suspicions."

So, I'm not sure this means much as Bob Mueller obviously knew this and Cohen wasn't charged for anything related to this. IF there was "Some other case" this was related to, charges should have been filed long ago.

...

Columbus Nova, the same U.S. investment arm of the Renova Group—an investment conglomerate Vekselberg founded in 1990—that was recently reported to have funneled more than $500,000 over a seven-month period in 2017 to Essential Consultants, the limited liability company Cohen set up in the final months of the 2016 election. While Columbus Nova confirmed that it had hired Cohen as a consultant, it has sought to distance itself from Vekselberg. “Columbus Nova itself is not now, and has never been, owned by any foreign entity or person including Viktor Vekselberg or the Renova Group,” the company said in a statement, which omitted that Vekselberg is the cousin of its C.E.O., Andrew Intrater. (In a statement to The Atlantic, Weldon said, “I have never met Viktor Vekselburg [sic] and am not aware of any peace plan that he would have funded.”)
