        Fighting them on two fronts now. Good thing years of military doctrine have prepared us for conspiracy wars on two fronts.

        Yes. Also note said bank is under sanctions and the guy in question trained by FSB. But not related to earlier case.

        As others have said seems all too pertinent to include that he was let out early. Otherwise, yes sure.

        He was in custody from Jan 2015. So with time served puts his time solidly in norm.

        Yes it was part of his sentence that he be deported. However, he deportment should have been delayed until he could be questioned further.

        Why? If the evidence was available since 1/2015, They could have questioned him every day between then and now.

        Did he finish the full sentence? I may have misread but thought he served about 1 year of a 3-year sentence.

        I believe that there was time served before sentencing, plus good behavior reduction. 26 mos served of 30 sentencedhttp://www.cbsnews.com/news/banker-who-worked-as-russian-secret-agent-to-be-released-early-deported/ …
