95,392.  The Republic of Dagestan in the Russian Federation descended into lawlessness, which saw the Russian customs and border guards fighting a losing battle against one of the most ruthless branches of the caviar mafia; 20,000, 30,000, then 40,000 tons of caviar were fished a year as the New Rich in Moscow gorged themselves on black pearls, selling on the excess to the West for huge profits.  (Dagestan & Food & Russia)  Misha Glenny, McMafia

 

 

96,160.  Once it was Chechnya, today it is the republic of Dagestan on the Caspian Sea that is the most explosive place in Russia – and in Europe.  There are bomb attacks almost daily, shootouts between police and militants, tales of torture and of people going missing.  (Dagestan & Russia)  BBC online article 24th November 2011, ‘Dagestan – the Most Dangerous Place in Europe’

 

 

111,620.  Dagestan has suffered countless terrorist attacks; it’s been described as the most dangerous region of the country.  (Russia & Dagestan)  Russia with Simon Reeve II, BBC 2017
