“The case of the July 27 riots, as well as the criminal case of financial transactions with money known to have been acquired by other people by criminal means, were transferred ... to the Main Investigative Department of the UK,” the statement said.
As added in the department, two persons involved in the riot case on July 27 were put on the wanted list.
“Criminal cases of mass riots and the use of violence against representatives of the rule of law are combined in one proceeding,” the report says.
On July 27, an uncoordinated rally was held in the center of the capital, in which, according to police, about 3.5 thousand people took part.
After the rally on July 27, the UK instituted proceedings on riots and the use of violence against government officials.
In early August, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case on the laundering of about 1 billion rubles, which funded the non-profit organization Anti-Corruption Fund (FBK).
