Mammon and Mafia
The imprisonment of Mikhail Khodorkovsky and the 'wild east' of Russia's market economy
Russian oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky was jailed for nine years for tax evasion and fraud. Many say he was jailed unfairly and is a victim of Putin's suppression of opposition. Through interviews, the programme explores the implications of this and the difficulties some Russian businesses face, including with the Mafia.
