1/ Although General Sergey Surovikin's whereabouts are unknown following the Wagner mutiny, it's reportedly not true that he's in Lefortovo Prison or pre-trial detention. However, the general's case probably isn't helped by the claim that he's an honorary Wagner member. ⬇️
2/ The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel reports that sources tell it that Surovikin is not in Lefortovo and that Moscow's courts, pre-detention centre and prisoner convoys have not had any unusual recent activity or "special arrestees".
3/ As for Surovikin's whereabouts, a VChK-OGPU source says: "All we can say with certainty is that Surovikin, and a group of people very close to him, have gone out of touch. For two days, everyone has been unavailable. Including people who have been with him for a long time.
4/ "Also, the fact is that they are not in Lefortovo. There can be different reasons for such a disappearance, from some kind of work assignment, to the case that "preventive measures" have been taken with them, including Surovikin. Such a practice does exist."
5/ According to Mikhail Khodorkovsky's Dossier Center, Surovikin – a long-time ally of Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin – is an honorary member of the Wagner Group, along with 30 other Russian generals and officials. It's likely they're all under suspicion now.
6/ The Dossier Center claims that documents it has seen state that "Surovikin became a Wagnerite back in 2017. He was given a personal PMC [Private Military Company] badge under the number M-3744." The Dossier Center says it'll expose the names of other honorary Wagnerites. /end
