Russian Prosecutor-General Yuri Skuratov began investigating the financial shenanigans of Boris Yeltsin's family and entourage in 1998. When the Duma (Parliament) rejected Yeltsin's demand to
dismiss him, the Kremlin slipped the television networks a video of Skuratov cavorting with two young women in a sauna. Hundreds of showings only enhanced the prosecutor's image, and an absurd attempt to cast him as a modern Maliuta Skuratov, chief executioner for Ivan IV ("the Terrible"), went nowhere.
