> nerve toxin in underwear.

This fact came from one of the people who was involved in putting it there. Navalny phoned a Russian guy pretending to be another Russian official, asked him how this op went down and the dude said the toxin was in his underwear. You can see this all in the documentary.

Your attitude is misplaced, so much that one wonders why you're posting this.

I'm sorry, I should have falsed my flag better. I was poking fun at reality for plagiarising the fabulists.

No clue what you're trying to say ...

reality plagiarising fiction writers. Because underwear toxin is bizarre to the point of "wait, was that from an Austin Powers movie?"

Not that bizarre really, friends and family often borrow coats/t-shirts etc from each other but not underwear.

True, though in my admittedly not overly large circles of friends, family, acquaintances, etc., those brief (and sometimes frustratingly and unexpectedly permanent) reassignments of property, applying nerve toxin to the item has been a consideration in remarkably few situations. Those instances usually turned out to be a false alarm with only dry cleaning required to calm everyone's, um, nerves.
