zgirnius:
Hi Alla,

I happened to be rereading 'Horcruxes' for unrelated reasons and came 
across (Top of pg. 508, US Ed.):

"When Voldemort discovered that the diary had been mutilated and 
robbed of all its powers, I AM TOLD that his anger was terrible to 
behold."

(Emphasis mine.) The Russian translator is not assuming anything mot 
found elsewhere in the text, apparently. Adn Snape does seem to be 
the most likely informant.
