...standards police squad that quickly became known as "the Bacchus police." Last week, in the biggest Italian trial in decades, 174 men and women were charged with adulterating or faking wine.

He also watches spy movies and operates model trains. He no longer roars around Teheran in a Ferrari, but is a jet pilot with 5,000 hours' experience in flying just about everything but carpets. Both he and Farah-his third wife*-like nothing better than to escape for a skiing holiday in Switzerland or a week or so of waterskiing at Naushahr on the Caspian...
