Anna Duritskaya leaves Moscow
Anna Duritskaya leaves Moscow for Kjev says Ukraine’s foreign ministry. The Ukraine national was with Boris Nemtsov when he was assassinated on the Moskvoretsky Bridge near the Kremlin.
Ms. Duritskaya’s departure follows public comments by Ukraine’s ambassador to Russia, Gennady Breskalenko. “The Russian authorities should quickly allow Ms. Duritskaya to return to Ukraine. It has no right to keep her on Russian territory.”
Earlier, Ms. Duritskaya’s lawyer Vadim Prokhorov said she would not take a polygraph test: “Our position is the interrogation will provide any new evidence. It only checks the veracity of her testimony. No one doubts her. We refuse a polygraph. She is very upset. A polygraph is also stressful.”
