Kporotchkin – who the children affectionately called Uncle Seriozha – filmed the videos in his rental apartment, advertising his studio exclusively to foreign customers as «Siberian Mouse» (or «1st studio»). In an interview Maria Babko gave to journalists, she said the became acquainted with the photographer back when she was 10. He was detained shortly before her twelfth birthday.Īs fas as I know, there was a girl who invited her friend to the video shoot. As it turned out, the father of that friend of hers was a police officer. When he found out that she had money he never gave to her personally, she revealed to him where she got it. When they detained that man, I believe even the OMON Special Police Force was present. This is a rumor I heard from the other girls.
