Cambodia police detained the Russian developer Sergey Polonsky, hiding in the jungle. This was reported by Kommersant with reference to the specialist in Russia-24 "Alexander Rogatkin, who personally saw how" Polonsky in handcuffs was taken out of the jungle. " Of the clothes on the businessman, there was only a beach towel. Polonsky managed to tell that during the detention, the police shot into the air.

“He was excited, demanded a lawyer, demanded that he be provided with Russian diplomats, because at the time of their detention there was no one under him,” Rogatkin added. According to Polonsky, the police did not show him any orders.

About 50 police officers armed with machine guns participated in the operation, according to the journalist. In the city of Sianukvil, they sat on boats and went to the Bolshoi Koch Rong resort island. It was there in the last days that Polonsky was located.

Together with the businessman, his employees were detained. Nevertheless, they, delivering them to Sianukville, were released. Polonsky himself was taken to the open sea. Where exactly they decided to deliver the detainee, Rogatkin found it difficult to suggest.

Later, businessman’s lawyer Alexander Karabanov told Interfax that a search was on a search on his client island.

"Sergey Polonsky has already been taken out of Sianukville and is now being taken to a tenthop to transfer the immigration police. He will be in the center of the immigration police, up to the transfer of it to the Russian authorities," RIA Novosti told one of the Cambodian lawyers.

He expressed his surprise with a haste with which Polonsky was arrested. “Today in Cambodia a day off, usually we do not delay the orders of Interpol on the weekend. According to my information, even the General Commissariat of the Police in the PNOPen and the Russian Embassy were not informed about the date and terms of the operation. Apparently, Sergey was very necessary for someone here,” the lawyer said.

The raid on Polonsky became known on Monday morning. Then it was reported that a police source warned the businessman about the operation and he went to the jungle.

As Karabanov noted, the search for Polonsky intensified after the businessman published on a personal page on Facebook a record of negotiations of his representative with a Cambodian police official. The official demanded from Polonsky 1 million dollars for non -giving the Russian authorities.

On Friday, the Investigative Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs rejected Polonsky’s request to conclude a pre -trial agreement. As investigator Oleg Silchenko told Karabanov, the issue of a deal with the investigation can be considered "with the personal presence of Polonsky in the office of Silchenko as an arrested."

Silchenko led the investigative group in the case of a lawyer of the Hermitage Capital Foundation Sergei Magnitsky. According to the results of the independent investigation, Silchenko was called the main culprit of Magnitsky’s death in jail. The investigator is included in the Magnitsky list.

Karabanov also said that he intends to file a similar petition addressed to the prosecutor general Yuri Chaika. He recalled that the Code of Criminal Procedure allows the CPC to change the accused preventive measure even before his arrival in the country. Meanwhile, Polonsky previously stated that he was ready to voluntarily come to Russia only if a preventive measure is not related to imprisonment.

On Thursday, Russia sent an official request to Cambodia to issue Polonsky . A day earlier, the Cambodian authorities announced the intention to arrest Polonsky at the request of Moscow. As reported, the head of the National Bureau of Interpol, Lieutenant General Keo Vanthan, should lead the arrest. The security forces added that they do not expect problems when performing this operation.

On Tuesday, it became known that Polonsky was entered into the Interpol database about the wanted persons. "This excerpt from the Red Circular was approved for public distribution," the page with data on the businessman said. The circular contains information about the suspects of the commission of particularly serious crimes. Polonsky in Russia is accused of fraud on especially large sizes.
