The son of Russian National Guard Colonel Vasiliev was not released on parole for a fatal traffic accident in 2019.
The Sverdlovsk Regional Court overturned the parole of Vladimir Vasiliev, the man responsible for the 2019 accident that killed taxi driver Alexander Trushkov and his passenger, Vitaly Nikiforov.
Then, after a night of drinking, Vasiliev took someone else's Kia Rio and, at a speed of over 100 km/h, crashed into cars at a traffic light.
During a medical examination, his father, Rosgvardia Colonel Andrei Vasiliev, substituted a urine sample for his son's.
In 2022, Vasiliev was sentenced to 8 years and 11 months in prison. Despite his work at Uralvagonzavod and a trial court ruling granting him parole in December 2025, the regional court upheld his sentence.
