Daddy's boy

Marko Milosevic, the dictator's son, telling his father about his latest business idea, a maternity ward. From the Croatian secret service wiretap.
"Marko: I employ reputable gynaecologists from Pozarevac, offer acceptable prices, best conditions, separate rooms for women with all creature comforts.
SM: Don't fuck around with me. Better hang on to Madona [Marko's discotheque] and work that.
Marko: But I didn't think of opening a ward in the Madona. That's not compatible.
SM: So where did you think of doing it?"
Guardian: Dial-a-dictator
