Attack on Marina Litvinovich
On the evening of March 20, 2006, Marina Litvinovich, a member of the federal council of the United Civil Front (UCF), was beaten in Moscow.
At the exit from the OCF office, M. Litvinovich was attacked from behind by several people who struck her in the face and head, causing the victim to lose consciousness for some time. The criminals were not interested in the victim's belongings.
M. Litvinovich was hospitalized at the Research Institute named after. Sklifosovsky with a suspected concussion, but on March 21, 2006, she was discharged home.
Marina Litvinovich herself said in an interview with the Ekho Moskvy radio station that she is inclined to connect the attack on her with her activities in the investigation of the terrorist attacks in Moscow and Beslan.
The leader of the United Front, Garry Kasparov, regarded the attack on M. Litvinovich as intimidation of the opposition.
This is not the first attack on UCF activists, notes the Kasparov.Ru website.
