Moscow: A Russian man detained at a Moscow railway station died after eating heroin-filled cigarettes, police said.
Police detained the man, who was waiting on a train, when he appeared to be under the influence of drugs.
He was led away into a security room, where he was ordered to take his clothes off for inspection.
