> Dear Supporters of the Anna Politkovskaya Award,
>  
> Natasha Estemirova, the first recipient of the Anna Politkovskaya Award in
> 2007, was abducted and killed in Chechnya today.
>  
> After killing Anna three years ago, today they tried to silence the only voice
> of truth and justice that was left in Chechnya - the voice of Natasha. Because
> she spoke the truth. And she was punished for that, like Anna was.
>  
> But we cannot be silent, when women human rights defenders continue to be
> killed with a bullet in the head. Natasha took Anna's place and became the
> voice of the voiceless in her war, the war in Chechnya. Now, there is nobody
> else left. Let's all of us take Natasha's place and speak out.
>  
> Join RAW in WAR in expressing our outrage and demanding justice for Natasha.
> Please let us know whether you would like to sign our statement and to join
> the supporters of the Anna Politkovskaya Award - the statement is attached.
>  
> Please send your own messages of solidarity and support at the link below,
