Dancer Behind Bolshoi Acid Attack Speaks

Bolshoi Ballet principal Pavel Dmitrichenko: “Yuri Zarutsky, he was constantly saying, ‘Come on, I’ll go over there, I’ll solve your problem, I’ll knock him around … I admit that, absolutely. When I learned what had happened, I was just in shock, and I didn’t believe that this person who suggested beating him up just went and poured acid on him.”
