First, call the agency that guided you to the flat. Ask them if their contract that they drew up is worth anything and explain the situation.
Next, if you invested 35000 in an agency fee (typical), you can afford to consult a lawyer (initial consult fee should not be too much). A visit to your land lord from a licensed lawyer may prove effective enough to get him to back off. Your land lord is nuts for trying to intimidate you like this in this economic climate. Stick to your contract.

I rent a one room apartment in spartivnaya for 35000 rubles via agency. After 2 months, the owner came in and said that she wants to end the contract with me, giving unreasonable reasons, like living more than 2 people (in fact we doesn't), and complaints by neighbours... which doesn't happen before. She even bring several people who wanted to rent it and looked around. I was shocked. Apparently, she decided to rent it for a better price while we signed a one year contract. How the hell does something like this ever happens. _____ See all the ways you can stay connected to <http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowslive/default.aspx> friends and family
