RUSSIA - Glamorous friend of Vladimir Putin flees Russia after death threats
Ksenia Sobchak, who is a prominent Moscow opposition figure as well as a magazine editor, was urged to leave for her own safety by the FSB secret service.
Although she recently hired body guards, she is not seen as safe in her own country - despite the fact she has known Vladimir Putin since childhood, and her father was his law professor and political mentor. "I am going to leave Russia for a while," the 33-year-old announced at a Moscow party on Friday, it was revealed today.
"Close friends explained off the record that she is leaving not because of her extra sensitivity but because the secret service recommended her to do so," stated Kommersant newspaper. It had been reported in Russia that her name was on a "hit list" of Putin foes. The revelation of her sudden flight abroad came as the Russian president was scheduled to reappear today (MON) after being out of sight for unexplained reasons since 5 March.
The Russian president was due to meet Kyrgyzstan, Almazbek Atambayev, in his home city of St Petersburg, and follow worldwide intrigue and rumours over the strongman's whereabouts and health. The latest rumours suggest he had suffered from chronic back ailments, and required treatment from an Austrian orthopaedic, but the Kremlin has not confirmed the reason for his absence.
