Famous oriental dancer and business analyst Yekaterina ‘Katya’ Zavalishina, 33, has been arrested on suspicion of high treason and ‘espionage’ as she flew away from Moscow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The international dancer faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted.<\/p>\n
Zavalishina, 33, who works regularly as a business analyst, is accused of passing state secrets to representatives of a foreign country.<\/p>\n
It has not yet been revealed which country she was dealing with, but the arrest was made while trying to fly from Moscow to Switzerland.<\/p>\n
Zavalishina was detained in the capital by FSB intelligence officers, who told the state-run TASS news agency: “Moscow resident ES Zavalishina has been detained for high treason. “The investigative group had requested her arrest.”<\/p>\n
It is not yet clear whether its issue is related to the conflict in Ukraine, or whether any Western country is related to the issue.<\/p>\n
A court spokesman said: “Under Article 275 of the Russian Criminal Code (‘High treason’) she has been detained for further investigation.”<\/p>\n
Her mother Larisa, 58, said Zavalishina had to go to work in Switzerland and had left her dog to be cared for while she was away.<\/p>\n
“She has always worked with foreigners, but all the information has been open, public.”<\/p>\n
Issues of betrayal have been on the rise in Russia in recent years.<\/p>\n
