Well you've done me, I cannot find him.

My only guess has to be T. Swamy Raju? but I cannot find a photo of him :-\

First of it's better of you copy and paste your counter as it will keep updating, and secondly I have tried all 27 permutations (twice) and cannot get him?  Oh well. I nearly had a freebie with Salman Rushdie so I suppose it is "swings and roundabouts" :)

Are you sure?
I just searched the right combination (just to see if it still works) and it is out there. On the photo, he looks chubbier than his more recent pics.  ;)

I'm not saying that your game isn't working, I'm saying that I didn't find him after to attempts at going through the options.  I have presumably missed him and that means that this game has beaten this time.

Mohamed Nasheed?

It was that photo that fooled me as I must have looked at him 3 or 4 times but looked at the overall returns that looked nothing like him.  It was only when I paid more attention to the odd ones that google images returned that I saw the picture you used..

Well you could have called this guy by a few names as he is one of Russia most famous spies.  Interesting conflict of opinion in that wiki says he was born in the UK under the name I have given below, but he was also known as "Rudolf Ivonovich Abel" and it is also said that he was in fact born in Russia the year before (although there doesn't seem to be much evidence to support this and Wiki dismisses it).  Either way he was Russian either by birth or repatriation.

We'll call him Vilyam Genrikhovich Fisher as most of the literature suggests.
