Moscow Metro hit by deadly suicide bombings

"There are reports of informal taxis charging thousands of roubles - up to 4,000 roubles (£90) - for a fare that would normally cost 150 roubles (£3.40) - to get people to where they want to go."

Isn't this a bit insensitive? I mean the guy was 'on the scene' and that's all he could come up with.

It appears somebody at the BBC has now removed that particular segment from the story. Always a good idea to copy and paste the story here as well, then we can keep track of what changes are made. Good find dj
