Mafia blackmail

Russia

Astonishing revelation from the German press. According to Bild am Sonntag, the former head of the bid committee of the Austrian city of Salzburg for the 2014 Winter Games was allegedly the victim of blackmail by the Russian mafia. Fedor Radmann would thus have been pushed to resign in a maneuver intended to favor victory in Sochi 2014.
