10th of February he was quoted in this article as saying he was afraid Putin will kill him for his views.
Guess he was right

Yes, dead right unfortunately.
Looks like it might be a symbolic assassination more than anything else.
The combination of a relatively uninfluential but nonetheless outspoken opponent of Putin, the explicit publication of the corpse and then forensic obliteration of the crime scene, Putin's "suggestion" that it might be a contract killing, and finally the fact that this took place in the heart of historic Moscow - as far as I can gather, not too different from being in Westminster - makes it look like a bullying warning sign with flashing "don't fuck with me" lights.
If so, he truly is a nasty piece of work.
(But I think we probably all knew that already, no?)

Why is it unfortunate that the leader of the Right Forces has been shot?

I bet Putin will claim Nemtsov was a drug dealer & it was a Mafia hit.

How was it 'fortunate' that he was shot? He was pro EU Capitalist, not even a fascist.

He was a member of a rival kleptocratic oligarchic faction to Putin, it is neither fortunate or unfortunate.

He was shot dead. How could that in any way be 'fortunate'?

The BBC keep telling us how he was "a believer in a market economy" as if that's a good thing.

Powerful nuclear armed nations really shouldnt be solving poltical arguements like the godfarther.
Its even more worrying when the foreign policy involves backing a civil war land grab next door and sending bombers on day trips
That ghost recon video game set in th ukraine looks more like worryingly everyday

It doesn't even make sense if the suggestion is that Putin is not presiding over a market economy, is there no market in Russia? What do we trade with when we trade with Russia then?

It sounds like a reasonable guess unless of course he was mistaken for somebody else, a gangster perhaps, unless he really was a gangster & wasn't mistaken for somebody else?
You stupid cunt I didn't say it was fortunate learn to read.
Having said that - there are people in the world it would be fortunate to see shot dead

Why on earth Putin would want to kill Nemstov, he was not that popular in Russia anyway. I think West loosing brains.
Fiat?

Maybe enemy of Putin seeking to discredit Putin by murdering opposition politician to make Putin look even worse? All conspiracy theories welcome, I guess?
