" Nizhny Novgorod major" Kornilov extended arrest until February 15

The term of detention of 21-year-old Sergey Kornilov, the son of one of the wealthy Nizhny Novgorod residents, was extended until February 15 inclusive. This is reported by the Nizhny Novgorod Regional Court.

Kornilov is accused of threatening the safe operation of vehicles. We will remind, in a drunken form, he made an accident with three cars behind the wheel of an expensive convertible, and then went to the restaurant, where he continued to drink and record offensive videos in social networks. During the investigation, the district court first ordered him to ban certain actions until July 23, then sent him under arrest for 10 days for petty hooliganism and deprived of his driver’s license for almost two years. The examination confirmed that the accused was fully aware of the danger of his actions, and his expensive car was arrested.

On November 9, the court considered the issue of a measure of restraint: the young man objected to the extension of the arrest and asked to replace it with a milder measure. By the decision of the magistrate, the term of detention was extended until February 15 inclusive.
