Family believes former Russian prime minister also poisoned | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited: "Another of the "young reformers", Anatoly Chubais, now head of the Russian electricity monopoly Unified Energy System, linked Mr Gaidar's illness to the assassination of investigative reporter Anna Politkovskaya in Moscow in October. "It is unquestionable for me that a mortal construction of Politkovskaya, Litvinenko and Gaidar, which did not come into being by miracle, would have been exceedingly attractive for supporters of unconstitutional scenarios envisioning a change of power in Russia by force," he said."
