Take Action http://bit.ly/zAGW0

Natalia Estemirova, a top human rights activist in the troubled Russian republic of Chechnya and a close colleague of Human Rights Watch, was abducted near her home in Grozny on the morning of July 15, 2009, carried off in a car as people on a nearby balcony heard her call for help. Her body was found later that day in the neighboring republic of Ingushetia. In 2007 she was given the Human Rights Watch Defender Award. This video was presented to introduce her work.

It seems all good and brave people get killed in Russia sooner or later... In the end only ones left will be murderers and scum such as KGB lieutenant Putin and mafia... so sad

So long as Russia keeps pumping oil and natural gas for western consumption the major Nato countries will continue to stand idly by with regard to Russia's human rights indiscretions. Appeasement is the name of the game today.

when you work on exposing corruption in new york or mexico city it's a bit on the rough side ... but in a place like chechnia it's death on the other side of the door 24/7.... the law are the dealers in this place and you are on the other end of thier boot

I don't know who killed her so I can't comment on that part of your post, but she certainly must have been very courageous to work with such dedication in such a dangerous field.

Natalia Estemirova was killed by the government and the henchmen who run chechnia

she exposed all the killers and she knew what would happen to her

but she did it anyway

i salute the woman who has more ball and cock than the cretins and limp dicks that shot her

three cheers to Natalia Estemirova
