US attorneys said Monday that they’ve charged Evgeny Buryakov, Igor Sporyshev and Victor Podobnyy “in connection with Buryakov’s service as a covert intelligence agent on behalf of the Russian Federation.”

Buryakov was arrested earlier Monday by law enforcement in New York, according to a statement released by the Department of Justice, but the other two men are no longer in the US and, according to the FBI, “protected by diplomatic immunity from arrest and prosecution” while in America.
