A Telegram channel, "Nezigar," reported that the detention of Igor Shpurov, the head of the State Commission for Mineral Reserves, could initiate a series of corruption cases involving Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin's circle. Shpurov is described as a figure from the 'Tyumen clan' in Moscow.
According to "Nezigar's" source, Shpurov is the first link in uncovering corruption schemes leading to Sobyanin. The report suggests Shpurov may receive a non-custodial sentence if he provides the desired testimony, with measures taken to ensure his safety.
