MOSCOW. April 18 (Interfax) - The Crimean Supreme Court has sentenced a local resident to ten years in a high-security penitentiary for setting fire to a military registration and enlistment office and plotting to blow up a railroad bridge.
"The Supreme Court of Crimea has sentenced a Russian citizen to ten years in a high-security penitentiary for setting fire to a military registration and enlistment office in Simferopol and plotting to blow up a railroad bridge in the Sovetsky district of Crimea," the Russian Federal Security Service's public relations center said on Tuesday.
The defendant was detained last summer.
"A search of his residence resulted in the seizure of an RGD-5 grenade, a phone containing photos of the peninsula's railroad bridges, and a notebook with a hand-drawn map indicating the location of an arms cache, where an anti-tank mine and a fuse were found and seized," the security service said.
