Sergei Surovikingeneral of the Russian Army, would have been arrested this Wednesday for his alleged involvement with the Wagner group mutiny, according to ‘The Moscow Times’ citing two sources close to the Russian Defense Ministry.

At the moment, no official confirmation has been given by the Ministry of Defense. Surovikin has not appeared publicly since last Saturday, the day on which the head of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhinlaunched the rebellion against the Russian military leadership.

The situation with him was not ‘fine’. I can’t say anything else,” says one of the sources quoted by the Russian newspaper. The second source confirms that the arrest occurred “in the context of Prigozhin.”

“Apparently, he -Surovikin- chose the side of Prigozhin during the uprising, and they grabbed him by the balls“, he confesses, according to this medium. Surovikin’s whereabouts remain unknown at this time.

The newspaper The New York Times reported this Wednesday that the general knew his plans in advance and did not communicate them. Known as ‘General Armageddon‘ Due to his strong hand, he acted until Saturday as a liaison on the front between the military leadership in Moscow and Wagner’s boss.

Around these events there will now be lots of speculation and guesswork. I think this is one such example,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov said.
