Considered by both Russia and the West as an act of sabotage, no one has ever taken responsibility for explosions that caused serious damage to Russia’s gas pipelines to Europe in September 2022, marking a significant escalation.
The suspect, who is only named as Serhii K. According to German privacy laws, was a member of a group of people who placed mechanisms in the pipelines near the German island of Bornholm in September 2022, a statement from the prosecution said.
He and his associates had started from Rostok, on the northeast coast of Germany, with a sailing on the attack, the prosecution said, adding that the boat had been rented by a German company with the help of fake identity documents.
Authorities have acted on the basis of a European arrest warrant for the suspect, who faces charges of complicity in causing explosion, sabotage and infrastructure destruction.
Italian police officers arrested him overnight in Rimini on the Adriatic coast, a German prosecutor’s office said.
The Italian police made no immediate comment.
