On the night of March 25, 2024, 20-year-old Mikhail Bugayev, along with his friend, school student Taras Gagulin, attempted to set fire to a railway radiator cabinet, which only burned on the outside. The young men were arrested that same day. Investigators claimed they acted in collusion with Ukrainian intelligence services for the promised reward of 20,000 rubles. The court found Bugayev guilty of a terrorist attack committed by a group of individuals acting in concert and sentenced him to 13 years in a maximum-security penal colony.
