I guess the FSB has their skeletons too. Kind of like the "sugar bomb" that was found in the Russian city of Ryazan on September 23, 1999. The following day FSB Director Nikolai Patrushev announced that the incident had been a training exercise and that the bomb was declared a fake. Contrary to this, the police explosives expert who defused the bomb in Ryazan, insisted that it was real. Lieutenant-Colonel Sergei Kabashov of the Ryazan police said: "Our preliminary tests showed the presence of explosives. We were not told it was a test. As far as we were concerned, the danger was real."
