The court recognized the lawful arrest of billionaire Suleymanov

The Moscow City Court rejected the defense's appeal against the arrest of businessman Ibrahim Suleymanov, accused of organizing two murders and attempted murder. This was reported on November 12 by a correspondent of Izvestia from the courtroom.

Thus, the previously adopted preventive measure in the form of detention remains in force at least until December 2.

Suleymanov's lawyers tried to challenge the arrest in the Moscow City Court, but the panel of judges dismissed the complaint. The meeting was held behind closed doors at the request of the investigation, which referred to the need to protect legally protected secrets.
