By this interview Rabbi Berel Lazar actually recognizes that he had received the envelope from Arkady Gaydamak or from Lev Leviev but by no means ever knew what this envelope contained.
In 1999 Arcadi Gaydamak introduced Leviev in different businesses that Gaydamak developed previously from the beginning of 1990s in Angola.
The FBI currently proceeds to the investigation related to the corruption of NYPD officers who, inter alia, were corrupted by a certain Jona Rechnitz who is (or was) an employee of Lev – Leviev’s company Africa-Israel USA.
