A Russian citizen who intended to ship supplies needed to make weapons of mass devastation overseas was given an arrest order by a Moscow court.
In the specifics, the Lefortovo court in Moscow issued a decision ordering the detention of a Russian national who attempted to export raw materials or information required to manufacture weapons of mass destruction.
According to the court, Nerush Alexander Valerievich was picked for two months of preventative detention because he was suspected of violating Part 3 of Articles 30 and 189 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. This implies that his custody will last until October 21.
Anyone found guilty of shipping Russian goods that could be used to make weapons of mass destruction, including raw materials, materials, equipment, technologies, scientific and technical knowledge, and business (services), faces a term of three to seven years in prison.
