Russia's supreme court has ordered the retrial of three men charged in the Anna Politkovskaya murder case, the Guardian newspaper in London reported on June 25, 2009:

"Russia's supreme court has today overturned the acquittal of three men charged over the murder of journalist and Kremlin critic Anna Politkovskaya and ordered a retrial.

Politkovskaya, a journalist with the independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta, was gunned down outside her Moscow flat in October 2006."

Novaya Gazeta is one of few independent voices in the Russian media, Luke Harding wrote in The Guardian newspaper on April 12, 2009:

"Soft censorship defines the media landscape, and editors know instinctively which boundaries not to cross (the most important rule: never criticise Putin). Novaya is the last major publication consistently critical of Kremlin power. It covers corruption, human rights abuses in Chechnya and the neighbouring republics of Ingushetia and Dagestan, and the work of Russia's post-KGB secret service, the FSB. It is, in short, dedicated to real journalism, unlike Russian television and most other newspapers, all under Putin's thumb.

Why is Novaya allowed to continue to publish? According to Andrei Lipsky, its deputy editor, it plays a useful role for the Kremlin, allowing it to ridicule the frequent charge in Washington and European capitals there is no freedom of speech in Russia.

More importantly, he adds, it provides information on the state of the nation for the country's nervous ruling elite. "Novaya Gazeta lies on the tables of the presidential administration and all regional governors," Lipsky says. "Putin reads it, or people around him read it for him. The newspaper is a crucial source. They have liquidated many real sources, starting with television."
