Ilya, son of slain investigative journalist Anna Politkovskaya speaks during a news conference in Moscow, Russia, Tuesday, Dec. 11, 2012. The relatives of a slain Russian journalist are contesting a deal that was made between one of the accused in the case and the authorities investigating the case. While six individuals were originally charged for organizing and carrying out the 2006 murder of Anna Politkovskaya, a sharp critic of the Kremlin's policies in Chechnya, none of them are now sitting behind bars for the crime.

In this Tuesday June 12, 2012 photo Russian opposition activist and television host Kseniya Sobchak, daughter of the late St. Petersburg mayor Anatoly Sobchak, left, and opposition leader Ilya Yashin smile as they speak to the press at the headquarters of the Russian Investigation committee in Moscow, Russia. “I’m Ksenia Sobchak, and I’ve got something to lose. But I’m here.” This is what the 30-year-old blond socialite and TV personality said when she began her unlikely foray into political activism by taking the stage at a huge anti-Putin rally in December. Once considered untouchable because of her family’s close personal ties to President Vladimir Putin, Sobchak has since found that she does indeed have something to lose, as her apartment has been raided by police and she has been called in for interrogation. It has been a quick change of fortune for Russia’s It Girl, who like many Russians of her generation experienced a civic awakening after many years of political passivity. (AP Photo/Mikhail Metzel)
