Anna Politkovskaya's daughter is under constant guard
The daughter of Anna Politkovskaya, the murdered "Novaya Cazeta's" journalist, is under constant guard. On the day when her mother was shot dead, Vera was sitting in a car parked near the house and could probably see the killer. The available videos have his unclear images, therefore, the only investigation's hope is on Vera, the "Komsomolskaya Pravda" asserts.
Anna Politkovskaya's murder investigation is considering three main versions: a vengeance of the militiamen who found themselves, after her publications, in prison or search; a conspiracy of the opponents of Vladimir Putin and Chechen Premier Kadyrov; and also a vengeance of former militants who have went over to the federal side. Besides, Politkovskaya could be killed by Russian nationalists, since her name was on the "execution list" compiled by the leaders of fascist-like movements, the NEWSru.com informs.
We remind you that Anna Politkovskaya, "Novaya Gazeta's" journalist, murdered on Saturday October 7, a little past 4 p.m. in the doorway of her apartment block in Moscow's Lesnaya Street, was famous, first of all, for her articles on Chechnya and North Caucasus.
