According to Russia Beyond the Headlines, presently, a measure of restraint in the form of putting into custody is about to be handed down on Kamenshchik. The investigation into the criminal case continues.
On January 24, 2011, a terrorist attack on Domodedovo Airport in Moscow killed 37 people and injured 170. Earlier, Kamenshik did not rule out the possibility of being arrested.
