On 19 September 2015, an investigation by Russia's Investigative Committee has led to his arrest. Gayzer and 18 of his associates, some of them also members of the regional administration, have been charged with organizing and running a criminal gang involved in the theft of state property on a mass scale.[citation needed] The charges against him were dropped in March 2017.[1]
