Raid in London
It is reported that 50 agency and police officers are involved in this case. During the search, several electronic devices and “significant amounts of cash” were seized. Together with the businessman, two more people were detained – an employee of the mansion where he lived, and a 39-year-old man.
The operation was carried out by the Anti-Kleptocracy Unit – the department of the intra-operational department for combating crime. His factor is specifically for the fight against businessmen and oligarchs who fled from Russia.
Businessman personality
The main version is that none other than the co-owner of Alfa Group and one of the richest residents of London, Mikhail Fridman, was detained in London. The first vice-president of the Alfa Group consortium, Kirill Babaev, did not confirm or deny this information.

The Russian Embassy in London requires the British procurement authorities to notify the reasons and detention of businessmen. A corresponding note was sent to the British Foreign Office.
Requiem for a traitor
If the information is correct and it was Fridman who was detained in court, then these are strong signalmen to those who escaped from Russia. Because Friedman went out of his way to explain that he is a “good Russian”. For the sake of this, he even transferred money to Ukraine.
