Honoring Natalia Estemirova (Russian Subtitles)

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.

Well, We didn't have anything like this under Soviet era now that Russian have become a federation state it's extremely weird that this stuff actually happens all the time. Sure they might be evil but American ain't anything better actually their worse

Chechnya pissed off Russia.

there was never 300.000 russians , if of course you not count the jews, ukrainians, armenians, dagestan, ingush , azerbajan , and all other representatives of other nations . they know who left the country first . it was every one except chechens. so there is nothing to invistigate. and specialy u and such of you will not to change the point of that genocide what russia have done in chechnya! How about 400.000 killed civilians by russian "anti terror operation" is the reality!

Approximately 300 000 Russians lived up to the war in Chechnya, 1994. Now they do not exist in the republic. Why do organizations such as HRW are not interested in their fate? This is certainly not consistent with the geopolitical goals of the United States in the region, but this would create at least the appearance of objectivity.

Thank you HRW for all that you do.
