The man from the Far East city of Ussurisk has been charged with growing drug-containing plants and offered 100,000 rubles (about $3,000) to an investigator for the charges to be dropped." "He managed to eat one banknote before being arrested and charged with attempting to bribe a public official. The head of the internal security department, Colonel Ivan Chaika, said that this was not the first time someone had tried to bribe one of his men, but it was the first time he could remember someone ever trying to eat the evidence."
