Former Ukrainian footballer Aleksandr Aliyev linked to Russian police card
A report from the Telegram channel Baza says a card belonging to former Ukraine national footballer Aleksandr Aliyev appeared in the search database of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs. The card lists the name Alexander Alexandrovich Aliyev with a birth date of 02/03/1985 and notes that the person is wanted under the Criminal Code, though the specific article is not shown. This detail was reported by Baza and attributed to the Russian authorities in the MI system.
It is stated on the card that Alexander Alexandrovich Aliyev is wanted under a Criminal Code article, but the exact provision is not specified in the report. The coverage from Baza emphasizes that the article number was not disclosed. This development was described by the same source as of late August, adding to ongoing questions surrounding the case.
On August 30, Aliyev posted a video on his social networks in which he calls on the Ukrainian Armed Forces to “go forward and kill civilians.” He is quoted saying that those on the front lines should move forward and kill civilians, a message reported by Baza in coverage of the incident.
By the end of August, authorities in the Kursk region opened a criminal case over calls for murder attributed to Aliyev. The Kursk investigators are reviewing the content of the statements and their potential implications, as noted by the reporting channel.
In terms of football career, Aliyev moved from Dynamo Kiev to Lokomotiv Moscow in 2010. The Khabarovsk-born player appeared in 27 matches for Lokomotiv, scoring 15 goals and providing 5 assists during his time with the club, according to historical team records cited by media outlets. This sporting chronology provides context for his profile in both Ukrainian and Russian football circles.
Aliyev’s mother, who had previously lived in the Russian Federation, reacted to the calls attributed to her son and the Kursk incident as reported in local coverage. The family response has been noted in media summaries, and observers highlight how such developments ripple through both sporting and public life.
The situation surrounding Aliyev remains under investigation, with authorities continuing to assess the information surrounding the police card and the alleged calls for murder. Reports from Baza are part of ongoing cross-border reporting that keeps audiences in Canada and the United States informed about developments tied to incidents in the Kursk region and the broader dialogue around former football players facing criminal inquiries.
