I read that Lavrentiy Beria (former head of the NKVD, the Soviet secret police) would routinely have teenage girls picked up off Moscow streets and rape them. But I heard that he had one ritual that was particularly sadistic, called "Beria's Flower Game".

Could someone tell me what that was about?
 
"At night he would cruise the streets of Moscow seeking out teenage girls," Antonov-Ovseyenko has said in an interview. "When he saw one who took his fancy he would have his guards deliver her to his house. Sometimes he would have his henchmen bring five, six or seven girls to him. He would make them strip, except for their shoes, and then force them into a circle on their hands and knees with their heads together. He would walk around in his dressing gown inspecting them. Then he would pull one out by her leg and haul her off to rape her. He called it the flower game."
 
It's amazing what one can find on the Internet.
