It should be noted that the statement of the department does not say where the detention took place, nor did this citizen work if he worked. However, according to sources from law enforcement agencies, it became known that we are talking about the assistant to the plenipotentiary of the President of the Russian Federation in the Urals Federal District, Alexander Vorobyov.
