Russian reporter: why I fled from my country

A Russian journalist has been explaining to a US Congress committee why she fled from her country. Fatima Tlisova, who worked for the Associated Press in Russia for nearly two years, said she had been beaten, harassed and possibly poisoned - but she finally decided to leave after her 16-year-old son was detained by drunken police on a false charge. It was the day after the murder of Anna Politkovskaya. (Via Moscow Times)
