Markelov Memorial Demonstration Banned

The Moscow authorities prohibited human rights activists from holding a demonstration in memory of Stanislav Markelov, a prominent rights lawyer who was assassinated on 19 January 2009 together with journalist Anastasia Baburina. Two suspects, allegedly neo-Nazi activists, are being prosecuted for that crime.
