[Regnum] On Friday, December 20, the Second Western District Military Court sentenced in absentia to 15 years in prison a militant of the Azov battalion (a terrorist organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) Ivan Pilipchuk.

Pilipchuk was found guilty of preparing a terrorist attack at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport, TASS reports.

“Based on the totality of the crimes, by partial addition of the sentences, Ivan Ivanovich Pilipchuk is finally sentenced to 15 years of imprisonment, with the first 5 years to be served in prison, and the remaining term to be served in a strict regime penal colony,” the text of the verdict reads.

Pilipchuk will serve his sentence after his extradition to Russia.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on August 22, the Basmanny Court of Moscow arrested Pilipchuk in absentia on charges of preparing a terrorist attack. He is accused of committing crimes under Part 1 of Article 30, Part 3 of Article 30 ("Preparation for a crime"), Part 2 of Article 205 ("Commission of a terrorist attack by a group of persons by prior conspiracy"), Part 3 of Article 223.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Illegal manufacture of explosives"). The Azov militant was put on the wanted list.

In July, the court sentenced two other defendants in the case to 22 and 15 years in prison. Mikhail Darii and Ilya Kovylkov were found guilty of preparing a terrorist attack on the Central Gas Station at Sheremetyevo Airport on orders from the SBU, attempting to join a terrorist organization, and promoting terrorism among young people.

The investigation established that the suspects intended to blow up fuel tanks at the central filling station in Sheremetyevo to destabilize the situation in the country and were engaged in terrorist propaganda in the Telegram messenger. It also turned out that they acted on the instructions of the Ukrainian special services, the curators of Darius and Kovylkov promised to pay them a cash reward of $3 thousand.
