Home Anonymous Operations Ideas are bulletproof Russia - The Eyes of Voices Gone

Animated and directed by Bennie Melwin. Music by Freddie Baites.
A reporter for the independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta, Politkovskaya was gunned down in the stairwell of her Moscow apartment building on 7 October 2006. She was famous for her hard-hitting coverage of the Caucasus and her criticism of the Kremlin, and her murder has become a symbol of the threats to freedom of information in Russia and impunity for crimes of violence against journalists.
