birdwatcherHOUSTON (Reuters) - A U.S. federal grand jury is investigating an allegation that Texas energy billionaire Dan Duncan violated Russian hunting laws during a 2002 trip, a spokesman for Duncan's lawyer said on Thursday.
Duncan shot and killed a moose and a sheep from a helicopter, a practice he did not know was illegal in Russia. Neither animal is considered an endangered species. The guide is now a top official with a Russian hunting-license agency.
"What the hell is the U.S. interest in bringing felony charges here for hunting on Russian soil, where not one single person has complained?" Duncan's lawyer Rusty Hardin told the Chronicle. "Is this really the best use of our prosecutorial resources?"
От всей души присоединяюсь к вопросу.
