They said the man, identified only as 28-year-old Sergej W, was hoping to profit from a drop in the football team’s share price as a result of last week’s attack. “The accused is suspected of having carried out the attack on the team bus,” prosecutors said. The suspect had bought so-called put options on the team’s shares on the day of the incident. These 15,000 options could have been sold at a price with a sharp fall in the share price.
