RT spoke with a man from Crocus who was mistakenly taken for a security officer. There was information circulating online that he was allegedly an FSB officer who detained terrorists.

In fact, he turned out to be Alexey Druzhkov, he works in an oil and gas company. He learned about his “involvement in the special services’ from friends who found a collage of his photo and a frame from the arrest. The man also told RT how he was getting out of the hall when the terrorist attack began.
