Nikolai Vasilyevich Sevryugin (16 February 1939 – 26 March 2002; Russian: Никола́й Васи́льевич Севрю́гин) was a Russian politician and governor of Tula Oblast from October 1991 (appointed by Boris Yeltsin) to March 1997.[1] He was charged with taking bribes after he left office, but postponements of the case, including for his declining health, led to his death before any outcome on the charges against him.[2][3]
