In Russia, singer Philip Kirkorov stole music from the French composer Didier Marouani, the leader of the group Space. Marouani demanded compensation, Kirkorov allegedly agreed, summoned the composer to Moscow, and told him in the police for extortion. Maruani was arrested, then released, and he immediately left Russia.

And Kirkorov acts as if nothing had happened, he also laughs at various talk shows over the hapless Frenchman.
