The interrogation of FSB employee M, whose evidence can be described as "the more time passes, the more can be recollected". He tried to bring into a line some points of the documents, to mislead the court by discussing the specific character of the counter-intelligent work based on his own experience as if he had been the only counter-intelligence official participating in the proceedings.
