го современника:

«Moscow was a disaster. I arrived on December 14. It was

minus God knows what, and immigration had lost my visa.

Myself and cameraman were forced to sleep in the airport

terminal (no heating) for two nights before we could get out.

One night we went to a casino. The cheating was so

obvious. As the ball fell, the croupier would cough and

several men would lean over and put their chips on the

winning number, and hence he paid a small fortune.

I observed this for half an hour, and then asked to see the

manager, who turned out to be from Manchester.

So I sat next to him in the bar and without looking

obvious, told him what was going on. One man, who had been

involved in the scam, started to walk towards us and the

manager nearly bursts into tears and whispers “Whatever

you do shut up and say you are an old school friend of mine”.

So I did.

This gentleman, in Armani cords and a YSL jacket eyes

me up, asks a few questions and puts his arm around me in a

“friendly” way. It is then that I see the pistol in his belt. I am

sweating.

I explained that I was an old friend, working in Moscow

for a London TV network. He seemingly believes this and

walks away speaking into a mobile.

The manager then whispers: “He is the head of the

Chetchen mafia in Moscow. I would make an excuse and

leave, go to your hotel, and stay there. He is wondering what

are you talking to me about”.
