The Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation has detained a US citizen. The American is accused of "Espionage".
According to the information published on Online departments, a US citizen was suspected of collecting some kind of intelligence on “biological topics”, which could later be used against the security of our country. The investigation is being conducted under Article 276 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
What kind of “biological information” and for what purpose the American collected is not reported. However, given the presence in the United States of numerous biolaboratories, including those involved in the development weapons mass destruction, the consequences of obtaining such data by the American intelligence services could have serious consequences for Russia.
It is worth adding that just yesterday a Russian citizen Anatoly Legkodymov was detained in the United States. True, he is accused not of “espionage”, but of “money laundering” through the Bitzlato crypto exchange, of which he is the majority owner.
It is noteworthy that the 40-year-old Russian businessman lives in China. He flew to the USA for a while, where he was detained. Now Legkodymov could face up to 5 years in prison if American law enforcement officers prove him guilty.
