Volgograd Region Resident Arrested in Crimea for Preparing Terrorist Attack
The FSB reported the arrest of a resident of the Volgograd region in a case of preparing a terrorist attack in Crimea. The court sent her to a pre-trial detention center.
The arrested woman is 54 years old, she is a citizen of Russia. According to the security forces, she came from the Volgograd region to Crimea "on the instructions of a Ukrainian curator."
According to the FSB, the woman brought "a powerful explosive device embedded in an icon" to the building of the FSB Directorate for Crimea; this item was given to her by a courier already on the peninsula. "During the inspection, a high-explosive IED with a capacity of 1 kg in TNT equivalent was found and defused in the icon. The bomb contained foreign-made plastic explosives and a mechanism that is triggered by a code signal," TASS quotes the security forces as saying.
The special services also claim that the resident of the Volgograd region “was fraudulently drawn into terrorist activity by Ukrainian special services using the Telegram messenger” - by carrying out such orders, she allegedly tried to return the money stolen from her by telephone scammers. The FSB report notes that the “curator” instructed the woman to independently “send the code to the actuator of the explosive device” and as a result of the explosion, she herself was supposed to die.
The Kiev District Court of Simferopol arrested the woman for two months, Interfax-Yug reports today. The woman is charged with attempted terrorism and illegal trafficking of explosives.
