MOSCOW— Anna Politkovskaya, the investigative reporter gunned down in central Moscow on Saturday, had been in the last stages of preparing an article on torture in Chechnya, her newspaper said Sunday, October 8. "We were expecting material for Monday's issue. She said she would do it and was meant to write this, and perhaps already had. It was about torture in Chechnya," Vitaly Yaroshevsky, deputy editor at the bi-weekly Novaya Gazeta, said on NTV television, reported Agence France-Presse (AFP).
Dmitry Muratov, the editor, said: "She had several most important photographs which showed all of this. This was her material. It was going to be published in Monday's issue."
Although the newspaper was not in possession of a finished article, "we have some of her notes and of course we will partly publish this material", he said.
