Thousands Of Russians March In Memory Of Murdered Putin Critic



Reuters: 'I am not afraid,' Russians march in memory of murdered Putin critic

(Reuters) - Holding placards declaring "I am not afraid", thousands of Russians marched in Moscow on Sunday in memory of Kremlin critic Boris Nemtsov, whose murder has widened a split in society that some say could threaten Russia's future.

Families, the old and young walked slowly, with many carrying portraits of Nemtsov, an opposition politician and former deputy prime minister who was shot dead while walking home from a restaurant in central Moscow on Friday night.


WNU Editor: I expected a bigger march (if I was in Moscow today I would have been in that march) .... but the seriousness of his murder has galvanized Russia, and many are wanting answers.
