BBC NEWS Russia hunts journalist's killer
Russian prosecutors investigating the murder of a prominent journalist say they believe her death could be linked to her investigative reporting. Anna Politkovskaya was found shot dead on Saturday in a lift at her apartment block in the Russian capital, Moscow. Grainy CCTV footage from the building shows a man in a baseball cap following her inside just before the shooting.
The 48-year-old mother of two was known as a fierce critic of the Kremlin's actions in Chechnya. Deputy Prosecutor Vyacheslav Rosinsky said that one theory was that the killing had been "linked to the victim's social or professional duties". Her own newspaper, Novaya Gazeta, suggests on its front page that she was killed for her reporting on Chechnya. Police sources quoted by Russian media say Ms Politkovskaya was shot three times in the body and once in the head. A Makarov pistol and four cartridges were reportedly found near her body.
Ms Politkovskaya often wrote about human rights abuses in Chechnya and her last published article in Novaya Gazeta attacked pro-Moscow militia there. A new article about torture was in the pipeline, according to deputy editor Vitaly Yaroshevsky. "We were expecting material for Monday's issue," he said on Russian TV. "She said she would do it and was meant to write this, and perhaps already had. It was about torture in Chechnya." Ms Politkovskaya had received death threats in the past and suspicions were immediately raised that her death was a contract killing.
Ms Politkovskaya became ill with food-poisoning on her way to report on the Beslan school siege in 2004, which some believed to be an attempt on her life. In 2001, she fled to Vienna, Austria, after receiving e-mail threats claiming a Russian police officer she had accused of committing atrocities against civilians wanted to take his revenge.
Former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev described her killing as a savage crime, and a blow to the independent democratic press in Russia. The US state department said America was "shocked and profoundly saddened by the brutal murder of independent Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya". The director of the Moscow-based Centre for Journalism in Extreme Situations, Oleg Panfilov, said: "Whenever the question arose whether there is honest journalism in Russia, almost every time the first name that came to mind was Politkovskaya. "Russia has lost a brave and dedicated human rights defender," said Nicola Duckworth from the rights group Amnesty International which called for a thorough investigation.
Russian political analyst Anna Zelkina was doubtful there would be results. "There is this series of politically motivated murders like hers," she told the BBC. "I'm afraid that there will be less and less people who would be taking the risk to report... [she's] a very difficult person to replace." Terry Davis, secretary-general of the human rights watchdog The Council of Europe, suggested she may have fallen victim to "self-appointed executioners... silencing voices of protest".
In an interview two years ago with the BBC, Ms Politkovskaya said she believed it was her duty to continue reporting, despite receiving death threats. "I think the duty of doctors is to give health to their patients, the duty of the singer to sing - the duty of the journalist is to write what this journalist sees in reality," she said.

A trial is underway in Moscow of three men charged with the connection of the killing of the investigative journalist Anna Politkovskaya.

It was a murder which shocked 4______ and the world.

But who paid for that contract? Anna Politkovskaya had plenty of 15_______. She took on the Russian military accusing them of terrible human rights 16______ in the brutal war in Chechnya. She took on this man - Chechnya warlord president ... . She called him a modern-day 17________.
