Overview
- Lawmakers voted at a plenary session to remove Voronovsky’s parliamentary immunity and consent to a criminal case.
- The allegation centers on a reported 25 million ruble bribe linked to a Dagomys road‑construction firm.
- A law enforcement source said firm director Safarabiy Napso testified he paid for property and work benefiting Voronovsky’s associates through intermediaries, with others confirming those statements.
- The prosecutor general’s representation sought pretrial detention and searches at the deputy’s home and workplace, though he was not detained after the vote.
- Voronovsky denies wrongdoing, has said he will cooperate, surrendered his foreign passport, and prosecutors may later ask parliament to revoke his mandate depending on the investigation.
