A top intelligence official has been moved to a high security jail in Moscow as Vladimir Putin purges his secret services over the botched Ukraine invasion, say reports.
Col-General Sergei Beseda, 68, head of the 5th Service of the Federal Security Service (FSB), was earlier under house arrest.
He has now been placed in pre-trial detention in notorious Lefortovo Prison, suggesting he will face major charges for intelligence failings, it is claimed.
