A Russian businessman who has close ties to President Putin and who is accused of being involved in an insider trading and hacking scheme will be detained pending trial, a federal judge in Massachusetts says.
Klyushin was extradited to the U.S. from Switzerland last month. He was arrested on insider trading and computer hacking charges andwhile traveling in Europe, his lawyer told NBC News.
“He was perceived by U.S. intelligence as someone who may have confidential information or state secrets,” said Oliver Ciric, who represented Klyushin in a bid to keep the Swiss government from extraditing him to the U.S. Klyushin was arrested when he flew in a private jet with his family to Switzerland for a ski vacation in March and was held there until he was flown to Boston over the weekend.
