Original subtitles

The SWAT team was supposed to storm

the main hall of the restaurant.

We were not serene.

In these moments, it's an adrenaline rush. We do not think.

We went in at half past seven,

so the party was still at the beginning.

Police! Don't move!

We pulled all the people out.

About 200 people, including 50 prostitutes.

Everyone was arrested.

Mogilevich is a very cruel man.

He has ordered the killings of hundreds of people.

Mogilevich is very smart.

He is always a step ahead.

Mogilevich is an evil genius...

But he also represents the dark side of the Russian state.

The orders came directly from mogilevich.

Then we would honor the killing contracts.

I spent seven years in jail.

I was 18 years old when I joined the organization

of semion mogilevich.

My name is leonid roitman.

I am ready to testify. So that the people can hear the truth.

He would destroy entire rival groups.

He would first get rid of the leaders.

Then, he�d take care of the new leaders replacing them.

This would generally last until the entire group was destroyed.

He ordered the killings of hundreds.

Unfortunately, I cannot answer this question.

If I did, in the case of a trial, this could be used against me.

I have only seen him once.

He's a big fat man with a big belly.

As far as I know, he's the main link outward.

He's unapproachable.

And I think that he's involved in scams right up to this very day.

People I know have been to his office on many occasions,

but I've never taken part in any of the meetings.

I knew they brought away with them sums like a million dollars, 1.2 million

seven hundred thousand dollars.

Someone placed five kilos of tnt in a fiat polski

and they blew it up in a street where tamas boros was passing every day.

In addition to him, three passersby died and 22 were injured.

We had no idea where he was.

We only knew he was in Prague.-

semion mogilevich was looking for a place in Europe

where he could set up his headquarters.

My name is Milan Mikes, I worked in the police.

Semion mogilevich has influenced not only my life but the life of my whole family.

So the u holubu restaurant was his headquarters.

I knew that from several operative sources.

I transmitted it to my superior, which was zdenek mach�cek at that time.

We learned through insiders

that they were going to meet at their restaurant

to celebrate one of their leader�s birthday.

So, we decided to intervene.

We assumed that we were going up against heavily armed men

who didn't really care about anything.

The raid proceeded.

Police! Don't move!

All the "bosses" who were present

had their armed bodyguards.

At first, they were surprised. The mobsters started clapping,

thinking it was some kind of a birthday surprise.

And there was a huge shark ready to be eaten

an enormous cake in the shape of the sun,

the emblem of their solntsevo clan.

They were all lined up here,

facing the wall, handcuffed.

We didn't manage to arrest mogilevich.

The raid was leaked by someone from the police.

Mogilevich had contacts within the Czech police.

Probably even within our own department.

So, we missed mogilevich by 10 minutes.

According to our information, his car was at a crossroads next door.

A few weeks after, came a request that

semion mogilevich would like to meet US.

We were considering for a moment,

whether to agree to it or not.

So, a meeting was arranged in poysdorf,

a small town in Austria, right at the border.

I didn't even have my gun.

The meeting in the restaurant was supposed to start at one o'clock.

At 1:30 P.M., still no sign of mogilevich.

For a moment, I thought that it was all a joke.

Then, two guys got out from a Mercedes, went in the restaurant,

they looked at US, they walked through the room up to the bathroom

Those were the longest five minutes of my life.

A black limousine pulled in and semion mogilevich got out of it.

He looked exactly like the photos.

Beside the Fiddler cap,

what I won't forget is that he reminded me of Lenin.

He was wearing a rolex on his hand, but had dirt under his nails.

After the formalities,

�do you think you can compete with me?�

"You can't mess with me."

His basic request was that we revoke the prohibitions of stay.

And he, in return,

would be willing to give US some information

about, the Russian organized crime.

Um, it was an unacceptable offer for US.

So, mogilevich called me two days after the meeting.

He only answered that he regretted our decision,

but that we would regret it even more.

The consequence was the following:

My colleague zdenek mach�cek and I were arrested.

Well, the case was, of course, fabricated.

The court ultimately ruled that we were innocent.

Some people who participated in this were in connection with mogilevich,

and they used this to take revenge on me.

I decided to leave the police.

If I hadn't investigated mogilevich, we wouldn't be sitting here now,

I would have my wife, I wouldn't have white hair.

It has changed my life in a significant way.

These gang leaders are allegedly close

to semion mogilevich, wanted by Interpol and FBI.

For the past few years, I have been selling wheat and flour.

It's because I smoke too much.

Davidoff cigarettes.

They're saying these things exist. How can you prove they don't?

How can I prove it? These things don't exist. None of it happened.

These are just words. They don't have documents proving that.

Whether it's true or not, they keep accusing me.

The police have a lot of questions for semion mogilevich,

who has been wanted by several countries for 15 years.

Mogilevich and his partners are accused

of a 50-million-rubles tax evasion scheme.

Gas supply is a political issue

not only for Ukraine but for Europe as well.

Stability and security cannot be achieved when such a shady structure

is involved with such huge volumes of gas supplies.

We have no doubt whatsoever that the man named

semion mogilevich is behind the whole operation.

He is such a big fish

that he will be harder to keep than to catch.

Mogilevich is not protected by the Russian authorities.

He is a Russian authority.

He is the head of the Russian mafia,

but he also represents the dark side of the Russian state.

I've met a major source

who has important information about mogilevich,

I am Mario scaramella.

I am a consultant on security and intelligence matters.

I investigated the mogilevich activities.

Mogilevich, I was directly investigating him because

he had connections with the Italian organized crime.

And we were working on it with the anti-mafia section.

This is how I got in contact with Alexander litvinenko,

a major source,

one of the most important figures in the history of espionage.

My name is Alexander litvinenko

I am an ex-agent of the kgb and fsb, the Russian secret services.

Alexander litvinenko was a lieutenant colonel,

the man who was spying on powerful people. He was the ears of Moscow.

I ask this recording to remain secret.

It must only be used as part of your secret investigation.

You know, Russian special services kill people only to seek revenge.

He tells US everything he knows.

Litvinenko then decided to leave Russia and then found refuge in the UK.

His files about mogilevich were the most concrete.

Here is one of the tapes I have recorded with litvinenko

talking about mogilevich.

Semion mogilevich,

one of the most wanted fugitives of the FBI

has close relations with the highest officials of Russia.

This is why the FBI cannot arrest mogilevich.

Everything mogilevich does is with the approval

we were surprised by such an accusation.

It was a historical moment that exposed him a lot.

Litvinenko will never be forgiven by the Russian authorities.

Shortly after, Alexander litvinenko met two Russian guys in London.

They poisoned him

with radioactive polonium mixed in a cup of tea.

He died after a 23-day agony,

in unthinkable and atrocious suffering.

I miss him. He really was an extraordinary person.

Before his death,

we had recorded hours and hours of discussions.

Listening to these recordings, you can find very important information

about the villa of mogilevich.

Semion mogilevich now lives

in a villa in the Moscow suburb.

His house is right next to ziouganov,

the head of the communist party in Russia.

It�s a highly secured place where only the Russian senior officials can live.

He used to live there.

But according to my information, he has moved out.

Well, mogilevich is very smart. He is always a step ahead.

That�s why we call him �the brainy Don.�

Mogilevich never registers his addresses in his name.

But I have found several addresses in Moscow that are linked to mogilevich.

Vishnevskogo, n�9, unit 1, apartment 40

his first address is

a quite standard neighborhood.

Petrovka street, 24, apartment 61

the second address is located

in the center of Moscow.

On petrovka street, right next to the Moscow city council.

The other address I have is a house in his wife�s name.

And I know for a fact that there are dogs barking.

But the last time mogilevich was seen was in a public space.

It was in this church, which is not an ordinary church.

It's located right next to the residence of the patriarch,

the head of the Russian orthodox church.

In a cemetery of the capital,

a luxurious funeral just took place with unprecedented security measures.

Some footage show the beautiful funerals,

of one of the leaders of the solntsevo criminal organization.

That confirms US that mogilevich seems like a man

He enjoys his wealth

in absolute impunity.

I really find it unfair.

Mogilevich is my enemy today.

He has prepared my assassination.

I would like him to be judged for all his crimes.

So then, he would spend the rest of his life in jail.
