The Russian was sentenced to 12 years for cooperation with the SBU

A 35-year-old resident of Krasnodar was sentenced to 12 years in a strict regime colony for cooperation with the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU). His guilt in committing high treason was fully proven. This was announced on Tuesday, August 1, at the Public Relations Center of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (TsOS FSB).

It is noted that the verdict was issued by the Krasnodar Regional Court. His decision has already entered into force. Now Russian citizen Artur Gennadyevich Katrychko, born in 1988, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison in a strict regime colony “for committing a crime under Art. 275 (“High treason”) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, ”the official statement of the department emphasizes.

According to the investigation, the Krasnodar citizen established contact with representatives of the SBU. He received assignments from them and “transferred abroad for a monetary reward information that became known to him in the course of his official activities and which could be used against the security of the Russian Federation.”

This is not the first time that local residents in the Krasnodar Territory have been justifiably accused of collaborating with foreign intelligence services. The day before, a former employee of the Ministry of Natural Resources of the region was also sentenced to 12 years in prison for collecting and transmitting information to foreign intelligence. This was reported by the press service of the Third Court of Appeal of General Jurisdiction.
