From Wikipedia: "Politkovskaya was found shot dead on Saturday, 7 October 2006 in the lift of her apartment block in central Moscow, Interfax and other Russian news agencies reported.[3][4][5][6] Police said a Makarov pistol and four shell casings were found beside her. Early reports have indicated a contract killing, as she was shot twice, once in the head, but it is currently unclear who ordered the killing.

On the day of her murder, Politkovskaya had planned to file a lengthy story on torture practices believed to be used by Chechen authorities, Novaya Gazeta editor Dmitry Muratov said. Those accused in the story of practicing torture belong to security detachments loyal to Chechnya's pro-Moscow Prime Minister Ramzan Kadyrov, Muratov said. The detachments are known as kadyrovtsy. Now the story may never be published. What's more, Muratov said, two photographs of the suspected torturers have disappeared. Prosecutor General Yury Chaika will personally oversee the investigation, his office announced Sunday. Chaika's office said investigators were considering Politkovskaya's professional work as the primary motive for her murder. Billionaire State Duma deputy Alexander Lebedev, who bought 90 percent of Novaya Gazeta in June 2006, has posted a reward of 25 million rubles, just under US$1 million, for information leading to those responsible for Politkovskaya's death, Ekho Moskvy reported. The funeral is set to be held Tuesday, 10 October, at 2:30 p.m., at the Troyekurovsky Cemetery.[7]"

She was on the outs with her Soros manipulators as well. Either the chechnyans or the Sorosites are the culprits.
