THE Bolshoi Ballet's artistic director has left hospital saying he knew who was behind the acid attack that threatens his sight and the reputation of one of the world's great theatres.
Sergei Filin, his face scarred and eyes hidden by dark glasses, hinted yesterday last month's attack was linked to his work in the fiercely competitive world of ballet.
He said his attacker had looked at him from behind a mask "with fear in his eyes".
