The police took the Russian diplomat, Dmitry Borodin, to the police station this past weekend to protect his children. The man was under the influence of alcohol and his children were reportedly abused, confirmed sources to the NOS. The police in The Hague would not comment on the incident.The arrest of the diplomat caused commotion in Russia. President Poetin demanded apologies from The Netherlands, because Borodin has diplomatic immunity. It now appears the case came to light after the wife of the diplomat was involved in a car accident in Scheveningen. She lost control of the car on Saturday evening and hit a parked car near their house. Four cars were damaged.
