Odessa assassin

I've bought it on DVD having loved it on the big screen all those years ago -well, wouldn't you know, as soon as it arrived in the post, what should be showing on Channel 5 last night? Answers on a postcard,please! I love both book and movie and agree with everyone who thinks that more character development plus less gratuitous violence actually makes for a more suspenseful movie.
Re my subject title -what's the name of the assassin who meets a sticky end at the printers?( Either the character's name or else his own actor name will do.) And is he the same one who follows Sigi into the lift and along the tunnel, on the day of her Christmas shopping? It certainly looks like the same man.
