MOSCOW -- A Russian journalist known for her critical coverage of President Vladimir Putin and the war in Chechnya was fatally shot yesterday in the elevator of her apartment building in Moscow, in a killing prosecutors thought could be connected to her investigative work.
Anna Politkovskaya was a tireless reporter who had written a critical book on Mr. Putin and his campaign in Chechnya, documenting widespread abuse of civilians by troops.
Not really sure what to say about this- should there be a proffessional bodyguard service for journalists? |
