Was he previously known to Moscow? I wouldn't be surprised. He has a high profile for his exploits such as going undercover in N Korea with a group of students. Once he applied for a visa or permission to film or whatever, they'd do a check on him I expect.

We better follow him..."Monkey Brainsnoreply@blogger.com
