The acting governor of the Belgorod region, Alexander Shuvayev, was convicted of abuse of official authority involving violence (Clause "a," Part 3, Article 286 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) during his service in Omsk in 2005.
According to leaked information, the case was initiated by the investigative department of the Omsk police department. After graduating from military school, Shuvayev was assigned to serve in Omsk as a training platoon commander. For the abuse of authority, he was fined 15,000 rubles, and his criminal record was expunged in April 2006.
In addition, in 2010, during his service in Stavropol, he also appeared in police reports: apparently, the future Hero of Russia celebrated May 9th (Victory Day) quite wildly, after which he ended up in a medical facility with fractured ribs and a bruised chest. He told police officers that he had been beaten by unknown individuals on his street.
Shuvayev, as a reminder, was appointed acting governor of the Belgorod region on May 13, replacing Vyacheslav Gladkov. Previously, he served as deputy governor of the Irkutsk region.
It is known that Shuvayev took part in combat operations in the North Caucasus, South Ossetia, Syria, and also on the territory of Ukraine.
