Russian court rules: Former shareholder of Yugra Bank to be under house arrest

A Russian court said on Friday it had ruled that a former shareholder of Yugra Bank should be held under house arrest until June 18.

Alexei Khotin was detained earlier on Friday on suspicion of embezzling 7.5 billion roubles ($117 million) from Yugra Bank, whose licence was withdrawn by the Russian Central Bank in 2017.
