Investigators of the Russian Federal Security Service have completed
investigating a criminal case against a serviceman of the country’s Baltic
Fleet, charging him with committing high treason, a representative of law
enforcement agencies told TASS.
"Yegor Sergeyevich Tyukin, a junior enlisted serviceman of the Baltic Fleet, has been charged with high treason. His criminal case has already been transferred to a military court for trial," the representative said.
The case against the sailor has been filed with the 2nd Western District
Military Court, the court's press service told TASS.
"It will be heard in a closed trial," it said.
The military court is set to start hearings on the merits of the case on
September 19.
The court did not give details about the sailor's criminal case. The
circumstances of the case haven’t been made public as its files are classified
as top secret.
