The criminal case against Wagner Private Military Company (PMC) founder Evgeny Prigozhin will be dropped and he will leave Russia, the Kremlin announced on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n

Spokesman Dmitry Peskov revealed that Prigozhin, a Saint Petersburg tycoon who made his initial fortune in catering,\u00a0“will go to Belarus.”<\/em><\/p>\n

He added that Wagner’s fighters will not be persecuted, taking into account their efforts on the frontlines of the Ukraine conflict. Peskov explained that President Vladimir Putin’s team\u00a0“have always respected their exploits.”<\/em><\/p>\n

PMC contractors who refused to take part in the mutiny \u2013 and whole units did not \u2013 will be allowed to sign contracts with the Russian Defense Ministry, Peskov stated.<\/p>\n

Wagner\u00a0launched a major mutiny in Russia overnight, seizing control of the\u00a0Southern Military District headquarters in the city of Rostov-on-Don, as well as advancing towards Moscow. The insurrection was stopped late on Saturday, following talks between Prigozhin and Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, with the PMC leader agreeing to return his units to their\u00a0\u201cfield camps.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
