            A woman journalist finally got through, and repeated Igor's words that they needed a neurosurgeon. They demanded to know information on the state of the patient. Igor took the phone and explained that the woman had penetrating injuries, which probably did not hit any internal organs, but the man, if I am not mistaken, had been shot through the left side of the head and needed an immediate operation. After some time he finished his conversation, and they gave the phone to me.

            I called the embassy; so I know exactly what I am talking about. It was not right before the assault on the theater. We talked after 1 A.M, and then sometime around 2 A.M.— right up to the moment of the assault.

            When we called the embassy back, Sandy at first talked to an embassy representative named Barbara. Later they asked him to give me the phone. He handed it over, and someone named Andrey talked with me. This was on the night of October 25–26. I told him that Barayev wanted to release the American hostages, and wanted an embassy representative to come. Andrey asked me: «What time?» I went to Barayev and gave him the phone. They agreed to 8 in the morning. After this conversation, Barayev gave the phone back to me, and Andrey started asking questions, but all around me the other hostages started yelling: «That's enough, you've been talking a long time.» Later they asked for Sandy again, I gave him the phone, but the people shouted: «Shut up! That's enough! You've been talking a long time already.» The phone was taken from us after this, and we never talked with anyone after that. The public was worried about any kind of provocation. People from the Kazakhstan embassy told me later that our ambassador had talked to Barayev, and had agreed to our release at 8 A.M. on October 26th, 2002.
