The friend said that they played video games together a lot in high school and noted that the bullet engraving with...

And yet the BBC, with the soul of a ghoul, went ahead on Wednesday and did just that hours after the Prime of Slovakia Robert Fico was shot multiple times.BBC Prague correspondent Rob Cameron somehow thought the very day of Fico being the gravely wounded...
