New details of the arrest of Yevgeny Tkachuk have become known.
Two criminal cases related to drugs were opened against the actor.
Law enforcement agencies told RIA Novosti journalists this information.

It is noted that criminal cases have been opened against the actor, known to a wide audience for his role as the Jester in the TV series “The King and the Jester,” under two articles: smuggling of prohibited substances and their storage.
An agency source in law enforcement agencies noted that both cases could be combined into one proceeding.
Circumstances of the case
It is specified that the actor was detained the day before at Pulkovo airport. Tkachev intended to fly to Tbilisi.
During the search, a substance of unknown origin was found on the man, and therefore a decision was made to detain him.
The private equestrian drama theatre "VelesO", whose founder and director is Tkachuk, declined to comment on what is happening.
