The head of the radio engineering troops of the Aerospace Forces (VKS) of Russia, Major General Andrei Koban, who is accused of corruption, is in a six-bed cell of the Matrosskaya Tishina pre-trial detention center. This is reported by RT with reference to Alexander Khurudzhi, a member of the Public Monitoring Commission (POC) of Moscow.

According to him, at the time of the check, Koban himself was on trial to extend his arrest, but representatives of the PMC examined the cell in which he is being held.

“This is a six-seat cell, among its neighbors two are accused of fraud, one of embezzlement, another one of a crime related to drug trafficking, and among the cellmates of the general is the driver of the former governor of the Penza region Ivan Belozertsev, who is accused of taking a bribe from the owner of a pharmaceutical Boris Shpigel’s Biotek holding, and the driver is involved in the case as an intermediary,” Khurudzhi said.

He also indicated that the general has been in jail since December 7, 2021. There is a TV set, a refrigerator in his cell, and the general's neighbors have no complaints about the conditions of detention, the human rights activist added.

Earlier it was reported that Major General Andrei Koban, the head of the radio engineering troops of the Russian Aerospace Forces, was arrested in Moscow in a case of a bribe on an especially large scale.
