The opposition is preparing to walk in memory of Boris Nemtsov


Walking tribute to Boris Nemtsov will take place this afternoon in the center of Moscow.

Organizers estimate that "a red line has been crossed" with the murder Friday of most prominent opponents of the Kremlin.


The municipality has authorized this work for a maximum of 50 000, but organizers believe they may be more likely to walk along the Moskva.


Initially, Boris Nemtsov had planned to protest Sunday in suburban Moscow.


This gathering was apparently not allowed, and he had to denounce "Putin's aggression in Ukraine", as Boris Nemtsov had himself declared the microphone of Radio Echo of Moscow a few hours before his death.


The assassination was "thoroughly prepared" according to police.


Images broadcast Saturday night on the Russian channel TVC and taken by a video surveillance camera located at a great distance from the bridge height show what is presented as the unfolding of the assassination.


At the time of the murder, Nemtsov and his companion, however, are hidden by a snow machine in the camera angle. We can then find an individual purporting to be the murderer, run to the floor before getting into a light colored car waiting and leave.


Nemtsov was shot four times in the back received. His partner is physically unharmed.


The authorities announced explore all tracks: Islamist track, Boris Nemtsov, being Jewish and having received threats as a result of its support for French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, the political track is decided to ultra-nationalists of extreme right and others, but in connection with the Ukrainian conflict.


Political murders


Several opponents have been killed in recent years in Russia, including activist human rights activist Natalia Estemirova in Chechnya, the lawyer Stanislav Markelov and journalist Anastasia Baburova in Moscow, as well as the journalist Anna Politkovskaya.


The performers were sometimes arrested and convicted, but not the sponsors.
