The Samara court arrested the son of the deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, Igor Zubov, for two months in a bribe case. This was announced on Sunday, February 13, a source.
“The court arrested Zubov for two months as part of the case under Part 5 of Art. 291 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“Giving a bribe”),” Interfax’s interlocutor said.
According to Izvestia, earlier that day, together with Denis Zubov, two other defendants in the case were brought to court – the president of the Dynamo-Samara futsal club, Igor Karpov, and the former director of the MO NTP oil depot, Vasily Yermakov.
Karpov was tried in 2016 for illegal oil production and sale, while Yermakov was involved in a corruption case.
All three defendants in the new case were detained in Samara on February 11 while trying to bribe law enforcement officers. The funds were to be transferred for the patronage of the MO TNP oil depot. According to some reports, the amount of the bribe amounted to 18 million rubles. At the same time, the detainees promised to pay 5 million rubles a month for patronage.
Denis Zubov’s father, Igor Zubov, took over as deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation in 2012. In 2013, he received the rank of First Class State Councilor of the Russian Federation.
