SUSPECT EATS THE EVIDENCE

Speaking of eating money, an October 18 article in The
Moscow News reports that "A suspected drug-dealer who
was caught trying to bribe a policeman tried to destroy the
evidence by eating the money..."

The man from the Far East city of Ussurisk has been charged
with growing drug-containing plants and offered 100,000 rubles
(about $3,000) to an investigator for the charges to be dropped."

"He managed to eat one banknote before being arrested and
charged with attempting to bribe a public official.

The head of the internal security department, Colonel Ivan Chaika,
said that this was not the first time someone had tried to bribe one
of his men, but it was the first time he could remember someone
ever trying to eat the evidence."
