The former head of the Sergokalinsky district of Dagestan, Magomed Omarov, was detained again and taken to Makhachkala.
The former official is involved in a money laundering case. The court reportedly sent him to custody.
Security forces arrived at night to see Omarov. He was detained at his home in the village of Sergokala. Immediately after that, he was taken to Makhachkala, TASS reports.

An investigation is underway under Part 4 of Article 174.1 of the Russian Criminal Code. This concerns money laundering on an especially large scale.
Before the terrorist attacks in Dagestan, the detainee held the post of head of the Sergokalinsky district. Then it became known that the leader of the militants was his 31-year-old son.
Omarov was fired and then detained for 10 days on administrative charges. He was charged with petty hooliganism (obscene language in a public place).
He served his sentence and was released on July 4, but was soon arrested in connection with a criminal case.
Earlier in Perm, a driver fell asleep at the wheel and hit pedestrians.
