It would appear that the former promoter of mixed marital artist Alexander Emelianenko has been arrested for selling cocaine.

As reported by BloodyElbow, former fight promoter and manager Oleg Raevsky is currently being detained in St. Petersburg. The former promoter was arrested after the Department of Drug Control in St. Petersburg organized a “controlled transaction.” Raevsky was found with 5.16 grams of cocaine on his person.

The former promoter owned the Coliseum FC promotion until it ceases operation in 2014. Now the former manager and promoter of Alexander Emelianenko, brother to MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko, is detained in St. Petersburg during the ensuing investigation.
