The head of the Russian Security Council was questioned in a corruption case.

Former Russian Defense Minister and head of the Russian Security Council Sergey Shoigu appears to be in big trouble. His clan is defeated, he himself may soon be in the dock

The source "VCHK-OGPU" confirmed the information about Shoigu's interrogation in the case of corruption in the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the main defendants of which are ex-deputy minister Timur Ivanov and ex-deputy minister Pavel Popov.

"According to the interlocutor, this became possible after Putin gave the go-ahead for investigative actions with roughly the following wording: 'If there is something really serious, then work.'" The source notes that the fate of Shoigu himself has not yet been decided. "But the battle for Tsalikov (a close associate of Shoigu) has been lost. With a probability of 90% he will become an accused and he will be arrested," the Telegram channel writes.

Earlier, Z-blogger, participant in the war against Ukraine Mikhail Polynkov reported that Shoigu was interested in Russian law enforcers, in connection with which the ex-minister's health is shaken.

"Shoigu's entourage is sitting. There was information that on the eve of May 9, Shoigu was summoned for questioning, and he is now in hospital with acute heart failure," the propagandist said.
