An unemployed construction worker alarmed Kremlin guards when he tried to barge past them for what he said was a meeting with the Russian president to become his son-in-law, a popular daily reported recently.
He was promptly informed that Dmitry Medvedev only has a single teenage son and was then taken to a psychiatric hospital , Komsomolskaya Pravda said. The native of Russia's volatile Muslim Dagestan region, 35, whose name was only given as Bakhtiyar, was seeking to improve his fortunes by marrying into Medvedev's family after he lost his construction job during the financial crisis, the paper said.
