Investigation materials indicate that he took photos and made video recordings of personnel, military equipment and positions of units of the Russian Armed Forces in occupied Crimea in August-December 2022, and also determined the coordinates of the location of equipment and personnel with the help of special software.

A criminal case under the article "treason" has been initiated in Russia against this man.

The Russians also detained an alleged "Ukrainian agent" in Izhevsk who was preparing to assassinate one of the heads of a defence company in Udmurtia.
