Anatoly Voronin

Anatoly Voronin (Born 1951 - October 16, 2006) was the business chief of Russian Itar-TASS news agency.

On the morning of October 16, 2006, he was found knifed to death in his flat in Central Moscow.

He was due to return to work after taking a holiday, and his driver had waited for three hours outside.

Eventually the driver contacted Itar-TASS officials about Voronin's disappearance.

Svetlana Petrenko, spokeswoman for the Prosecutor's Office, has said, "Most likely, Grigoryev believes, is that the killing was linked to a personal dispute and therefore investigators are studying a group of the deceased acquaintances.
