Medvedev Says Killer of Human Rights Activist Identified

梅德韦杰夫说，杀害人权活动人士凶手已被确认

Russian President Dmitri Medvedev said Thursday that the killer of prominent human rights activist Natalya Estemirova has been identified, but the investigation into her 2009 death is ongoing.

俄罗斯总统梅德韦杰夫星期四说，已确认杀害著名人权活动人士埃斯蒂米洛娃的凶手，不过对她在2009年死亡的调查仍在进行。

Mr. Medvedev said the killer is on an international wanted list. He did not name the suspect.

梅德韦杰夫说, 凶手在一个国际通缉名单上，但他没指出嫌疑人的姓名。

Estemirova's body was found in the North Caucasus republic of Ingushetia on July 15, 2009, just hours after she was kidnapped in neighboring Chechnya. Authorities said she had been shot in the head and chest.

2009年7月15日，埃斯蒂米洛娃的尸体在北高加索印古什地区被发现。数小时前，她在邻近的车臣被绑架。当局说, 她的头部和胸部中抢。

Human rights activists noted Thursday that investigators have already named Alkhazur Bashayev, a Chechen rebel killed by Russian security forces in November 2009, as the killer.

人权活动人士星期四说, 调查人员已指出，凶手是在2009年11月被俄罗斯安全部队杀死的车臣反叛份子巴沙耶夫。

The Interfax news agency quotes Oleg Orlov, who heads the rights organization, Memorial, as questioning how Bashayev could be on a wanted list if he is dead. Orlov said he was "deeply disappointed" by the theory that Bashayev killed Estemirova, calling it "very unlikely" but "very convenient" for the Russian authorities.

国际文传电讯社引述人权组织"纪念"领导人奥尔洛夫的话质疑，如果巴沙耶夫已经死亡，他的名字怎会出现在通缉名单上。奥尔洛夫说, 他对于巴沙耶夫杀死埃斯蒂米洛娃的说法感到"非常失望"，认为这"极不可能"，但又对俄罗斯当局来说"非常方便"的。
