According to the lawyer, the former athlete filed a complaint because of the video released by the police with the discovery of drugs in his possession. The ex-footballer claims that the video is a falsification.
On November 3, the Prikubansky District Court of Krasnodar arrested Bugaev. A case was opened against him under articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation for preparation for the sale and transportation of drugs on a particularly large scale. According to the police, Bugaev had 500 grams of mephedrone.

“The officers who conducted the personal search released a publicly available video recording. The drugs allegedly on him were placed before that video recording, before the personal search. The gist of the allegation is that the circumstances of this recording were distorted. He did not have medicine. Therefore he (Bugaev) filed a claim for moral compensation for the fact that his honor and dignity were defamed by this recording when it was published.” , Zherebtsov said.
