Ukraine body is journalist's (BBC) (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/2840743.stm)Gongadze, who attacked what he saw as an incompetent and corrupt government via his crusading website Ukrayinska Pravda, was reported missing in September 2000.
A few weeks later a headless body scarred with acid burns was found in woodland.
Although the corpse was thought to be Gongadze's, doubt remained, with the journalist's mother in particular expressing reservations ....
.... Reporters Without Borders secretary general Robert Menard told a news conference in Kiev that the "most plausible" version of Gongadze's death currently being considered by Ukrainian prosecutors pointed to the involvement of the Interior Ministry.I shall raise a toast to another fallen journalist. It's much easier to remember that the press is actually on the people's side when a Daniel Pearl or Georgiy Gongadze is the result.
So ... when are we marching into Kiev?
