Immediately after meeting with Airat Maksadov, the owner of Vtorindustriya in Sterlitamak, where a scandal had recently flared up in connection with the placement of a solid waste landfill, a man approached me when I was in the car. He said he wanted to ask something, hit him in the face a few times,
