Russian news agency TASS reported earlier this week that Bellator MMA’s Usman Nurmagomedov, the cousin of Khabib Nurmagomedov, was arrested on landing at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport. Nurmagomedov was arrested along with Kamal Idrisov. Both are suspected of ramming a police officer with a car.
The alleged incident happened at Kaspiysk Airport in Dagestan before Nurmagomedov and Idrisov boarded a plane that would bring them to Moscow.
TASS reports that the incident occurred at 11:30 a.m. local time at an airport checkpoint after police officers demanded that a Toyota Camry—with tinted windows and no license number—pull over for inspection.
