The former defender of the Moscow Dynamo and the Russian national team Omari Tetradze told how in the early 1990s he was beaten by law enforcement officers.
Tetradze played for Dynamo from 1991 to 1994, after which he moved to Alania.
– You told how you were taken to the department in Moscow during a speech for Dynamo. What is this story?
– We just came from the training camp. We had a vacation for two or three days, after which we again left for training in Italy. I then lived in Petrovsky Park in a five -story Dynamo hotel. At the same time, friends came to me, stopped with me. At one point, we went for beer in my car. And I am in a sports uniform, a little unshaven.
As soon as they left, two police officers came up to me. We decided to search the car, opened it, and I had a lisch knife there. For this they brought me to the department, which was inside the hotel. And out of the blue, even without asking anything, they began to beat. Until the jaw was broken.
– It sounds terrible.
– That was such a mess. Even when they took me away, I asked my friend to rearrange the car, I thought that I quickly decided everything. I did not think that they would be so aggressive. While a friend reached, I was already all beaten and broken. He could barely ask him Valery Georgievich Gazzaev to call. He already came, figured it out and took me. The knife was returned back to me. An unpleasant incident.
– In general, it was difficult to feel safe in Moscow of the 90s.
– Yes. In the early 90s, what security could we talk about. I ran into the blue. Although we, football players, did not leave training almost. There was free time with friends in a cafe to sit. They sat, called, – the site “Match TV” quotes Tetradze.
