Murder in Samarkand - Craig Murray

Post by Brown Sauce »

David Hare's witty portrait of an unlikely hero, based on the memoir by Craig Murray.

Craig is proud to be sent as Ambassador to Uzbekistan, eager to work hard and also eager for fun. The combination takes him on a dangerous course both professionally and personally, and the stakes couldn't be higher.

Incidentally, Craig Murray appeared on Democracy Now in 2006. (link provided)

I also noticed his testimony before the UK Torture Inquiry on YouTube.
