15 years ago today our colleague and journalist Anna Politkovskaya was murdered. Today we will tell you the story of the investigation into her murder we’ve been pursuing all these years.
What was the role of the MVD and the FSD in the killing of our journalist? Why were the authorities doing everything they could to follow a false trail in the search for the customer? Today, for the first time ever, we will show you our secret witness, thanks to whom the investigation was able to find the murderers and the organizers, but fell short for political reasons.
All this and more in the documentary film “How Anna, whose life brought immense good to the country and whose death caused great damage, was murdered”.
