Anna Politkovskaya <br> (1958 – 2006) - IWMF

The International Women’s Media Foundation is a Washington-based organization that is dedicated to strengthening the role of female journalists worldwide.

Six people are suspected of involvement in the case – former police officer Dmitry Pavlyuchenkov, Chechen-born Lom-Ali Gaitukayev, former police officer Sergei Kadzhikurbanov and the Makhmudov brothers, one of whom is alleged to have been the killer. None of them have been brought to justice.
