The 3 men:
- Evgeny Buryakov
- Igor Sporyshev
- Victor Podobnyy
Buryakov was arrested without incident. The other 2 are no longer in the United States but had diplomatic immunity when they were here.
A copy of the FBI complaint is at the New York Post article.
The Justice Department issued a statement announcing charges against the spy ring.
The spy ring apparently emanated from a much larger operation called "The Illegals" that the FBI busted in 2010, which served as an inspiration for the FX TV show "The Americans."
