” “”She had been banned from national TV" because "she tried to tell the truth", but paradoxically "her face was known to everyone”; she was “considered the conscience of journalism in Russia”. In a release published today on SIR Europa, Victor Khroul, correspondent from Russia, remembers with these words the journalist Anna Politkovskaya, murdered on October 7th 2006 in the lift of the building where she lived. “She tried to tell the world the truth about the crimes committed in Chechnya, the breaches of human rights all over Russia, the abuse of power, the corruption of society”, writes Khroul about the reporter of “Novaya Gazeta”. “They have shot our conscience”, said about her, after her death, the dean of the faculty of Journalism of the University of Moscow, Yassen Zassoursky. Brave enough as to stay in Russia despite repeated death threats, Politkovskaya pursued the objective to "bring closer the time of solidarity and subsidiarity comments Khroul making society more humane and therefore more Christian. This is why so many people are praying for her and there is a cross on her grave”. ” “
