Top Russian journalist viciously attacked...

A leading Russian reporter brutally attacked in central Moscow by unknown individuals at the weekend was in a serious condition Sunday after being put into an induced coma, reports said.

Kommersant has said the attack was clearly linked to Kashin's work and the investigative committee of prosecutors has opened a probe into attempted murder. More...
