Wth was that traitor doing fighting for the Russians?
Yan Petrovsky alias Voislav Torden is Russian. He was sentenced in Finland since that is where he was caught (Helsinki Airport actually trying to transit through the country) and Supreme Court of Finland decided it wasn't legal to extradite to Ukraine due to prison conditions and due process concerns. So instead the case was brought in Finland by Finnish prosecutors.

But this is odd. What was he doing in Finland in the first place? He must have some connection to Finland?

Ehh apparently laying low and trying to use it as transit route. He was on his way to Nice in France. As I remember he had false papers for false identity and there is a Russian minority in Finland, so he was trying to blend in as traveling route. Apparently supposed super patriot didn't like living in Russia.
Got caught at border check. I think there was intelligence tip off or something, though obviously authorities have been tight lipped exactly how they noticed him. He was travelling under false name Russian passport and that was the initial arrest. Traveling with false papers and violating Schengen wide entry ban issued to his actual identity.

That or he is stupid, had big hubris and thought he would get away with it just because his passport had different name on it. Since should he have gotten past Finland, he would have likely been caught in France or so on. Whomever (likely suspects would be Ukrainian or American intelligence) tipped off Finnish law enforcemen could have just as easily have later on tipped of French security services "hey this guy is in Nice, wanna go arrest a war criminal?".
