Ex-defense minister of Lugansk People’s Republic arrested in St. Petersburg

Oleg Bugrov, the ex-minister of defense in the Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR), was detained in Saint Petersburg on March 30 on suspicion of delivering counterfeit tubes of "Ust-Luga Oil” Company, part of businessman Gennady Timchenko’s holding. The ex-minister is facing criminal charges for large-scale fraud.

Bugrov was arrested for a month period by petition of the Investigation Service of the Federal Security Service Department for St. Petersburg and Leningrad Region.  The law-enforcement does not comment on Bugrov’s arrest.

The individuals put on the sanctions list will be banned from entering EU and face freezing of assets at the EU banks.
