A senior Russian commander who criticized the Russian military and its war effort in Ukraine has been arrested, Russian state media reported on Tuesday.
Major General Ivan Popov, who had headed up Russia's 58th Army, was "arrested on suspicion of fraud," Russian state news agency, Tass, reported, citing a law enforcement spokesperson.
In July 2023, Popov was removed from his command of Russian troops in Ukraine's annexed southern Zaporizhzhia region after he criticized the Russian Defense Ministry for failing to provide sufficient support for the country's troops.
Popov condemned what he called a "lack of counter-battery combat," too few resources to scout for artillery and the "mass deaths" of Russian soldiers.

Azov guys! Bring your zElenskyy replacement president!
Volodymyr Zelensky cannot be a legitimate president after May 21 under the Ukrainian constitution, Viktor Medvedchuk, leader of the Other Ukraine movement and former head of the Opposition Platform - For Life party (outlawed in Ukraine), said in a recent interview.
That was an abomination.

I am 100% sure, that running your mouth and criticizing the Commander in Chief of any Nation at war, gets you taken down to private citizen. You do this through channels, you resign, or you get kicked into the dumpster.
